Like a Picture? Steal it!

Just Jo: Pranatha Books Kochi - Open Copyright Infringement
The link above will take you to Jo's post.

Jo takes a beautiful picture and finds it on the cover of a book. Only the credit is given to someone else … Of course he is livid. And plans to take action.

I don’t know why Prantha Books is not responding but I want them to know that I am not going easy on this and the matter does not end with this blog post. A legal notice will be issued in their name and I am all prepared to take it to the court unless they opt for a proper settlement.

I too have been down that road.

Dear Mridula,
Our friend and fellow GoNOMAD blogger Paul Shoul has information about encoding information in an on-line photograph that tells you when it has been purloined.
His email is paul.shoul@gmail.com

Teju, so good to see you here. And thanks a million for the new TT bat suggestion. Heard that you have a SLR? Do you upload pictures online?
