I just love spending thousands of dollars to produce content and then see it used this way without my knowledge, without my approval and without a license. It's really sad that theft plays such a big role in our industry.

Gots ta love it.

What I would REALLY love is for the folks who used it to step up and do the right thing.
First, remove all their advertising that contains images that they don't have a license to use. Secondly, send me a check for their usage of my content without my permission and without a license. And lastly, fire the asshole who thought it would be ok to use pictures that he didn't have a license to use for an advertising campaign.
Of course this "is" the adult industry so I won't hold my breath that any of those things will actually happen

Pretty much every ad I see on tube sites is built with stolen content I recognize. It's so sad these guys can't even bother to buy one set of photos to make creatives with even though they are getting a free ride on stolen content to build their traffic. Honestly, what does 1 set of photos cost these days?......$20

Everyone knows that I dont sell content and I dont buy content so I know NOTHING about the licenses and stuff but I am curious about something....when someone buys content (especially from the high end guys like Dean) do they have to buy a *different* license to use it in an advertisement? Does a site pay MORE money for content that will be used in advertising? What if they are buying it as an exclusive deal?
Just curious. Call me the content idiot ;)

If a client hires me to produce material for him - he owns the content and can do whatever he wants to do with it. If a client licenses content from me that I produced myself, he has limited usage rights which are spelled out in my terms of usage agreement. None of the content that I produce myself has been licensed to anyone for use with (or to promote) dating sites.Comment

Why do you have to attack pierre and not just post the image?
I'd be pissed if i was ampland or hoes.com as well as oeople get the wrong idea when you do shit like this, let alone al4aComment

It's frustrating beyond belief to have content that you've produced used without permission or fees paid.

First of all - I don't need to clarify anything. I haven't pointed any fingers because I don't know all the parties involved and I don't know who is to blame. Hopefully the offending party will step up and do the right thing. Time will tell -
And posting a screen cap was more work then linking to a banner so fuck you for calling me lazy

ok im done wacking your weasel.. gnite allComment

That makes perfect sense to me. Is it possible that the person who made the ad actually licensed the content from you for one of their normal sites or something and then it got used for the ad accidentally? Yes, I know that still makes it wrong...but at least the intent would not have been as malicious as if they had just right clicked on one of your pics they saw on another site.
You know me...I always try to see the good in people and I always hope that it was truly just an accident or something.

It's quite obvious that he's not attacking pierre or his sites. On first glance I knew right away the problem Dean has is with Hornymatches and their banner designer, not al4a/ampland.
I'm tempted to add a "duh" to that but I won't. :D
Btw my second thought on first viewing this thread was --- what, hornymatches.com doesn't have any of their own content good enough to make banners with? I find that hard to believe.Promote Wildmatch, ImLive, Sexier.com, and more!!

I just sent PimpMansion a bill for image theft and unlicensed usage. If they have any morals at all, they'll pay the invoice immediately and cease using any and all of my content that is in their possession. I think the going rate now for copyright infringement of an image is something like $150K per image. I hope it doesn't get to that point....Comment

Best of luck Dean.
