Here is what might REALLY help!! Write to the e mails at the ISP's that NOTICE: ARE

NOT BASED IN RUSSIA! Send the link to your image (click to get large copy) and if

you want, send the link to your rosity gallery for proof of your ownership. I am going

to do that.

If we all do this, it may actually help!!!
