Ah but now we're talkning Warez which imo is a whole different matter. "stealing" images is one thing. Making and using illegal copies of software is another. Sure both things are basically theft, but to a degree. If I post a picture and someone takes it, what do I loose? The picture? No, coz that's still on my Hard Disk. Money? No, since I wasn't selling the image anyway. Those who DO sell their art... I HOPE that what they sell is something better than a medium res jpg!!! Sure I can take a picture here and print it, but the resolution is BAD! I have tried with some of my own images, printing both the tiff and the jpg version of them in A4 size (approx. Letter for those unaquainted with the A4 format) While they looked almost alike on my monitor, there were GREAT difference in the print! And if we're talking Poster sizes the difference would be so huge that the jpg version would be unusable. It's not without a reason that printing houses want PSD's or TIFFs. And if you don't want anybody else pretending they made your art (I don'tunderstand why somone would want to pretend that in the first place, but as shown here they DO) then WATERMARK it with your name! And do it somewhere where it can't be removed without destroying the picture.
