Thanks for the warning, Kanzler. I gave them no pernission, whatsoever! In fact, I have just e-mailed someone there who seems to be in charge (top of the list, anyway) and asked for the immediate removal of all my images. However, so far I have only received a stock ebot in German.
I have recently visually watermarked all my images on this site, but too late for these. I don't intent to let it rest though. All these images of mine have a digitally embedded ID in them registered to me Peter Hague Concept • Design • Art Direction, which has been by business name for twenty years. I have just 'lifted' an image of mine back of their site and tested it - it works!
They give the name of the artists and mention Renderosity, but it has to be made clear to the world that it won't cover usage like this!
I think this has to be jumped on! Initially, it is an opportunity for Renderosity to throw it's weight around and contact them on our behalf, since they are mentioned as the source.
