cambaby, it's really simple:

Bandwidth used without permission (at someone else's cost)
content used without a license.
content used without 2257 documents (who knows how old the models they link to are?)
content presented without context

They are far beyond "fair use"... they are not presenting a thumb that links to a page, they are presenting all of the images with the HTML stripped off - just pictures, nothing else.

This isn't like a newsgroup scooper (which is still legally VERY questionable), but outright theft. Theft of services (bandwidth) and theft of or misuse of copyrighted material (images) for commercial purposes.

it's not hard to figure out. I think I could even lead Judge Ware to water on this one.
