hello again,
i am glad i could help. after reading your responses, and the post from nikitacreed, if everyone who had a image taken and posted would send an email to valueweb (use the templates at www.rightsforartists.com), i think that they will probably either have the images removed or shut the site down. i just checked out the site and this is a really blatant copyright issue. i know that you are really pissed about this, but if we do this "legally", we have a better chance of resloving this and possibility preventing this from happening again.

as for watermarking images, Ravnheart's example shows how awful an image looks when watermarked in this fashion (in my opinion). just remember to always sign your work and this affords you copyright protection.

well i have said enough for now. again i am glad i could help, after all, your tuts, images, meshes, texts, etc..., have helped and insipred me.
