You have to download the fullsize version just to see their "smaller" version.), it should be easy enough to get him to stop using it. In additon to printing out the page, make a copy of the html (view source from your browser). It's easy for anybody to see that he's linking directly from your server. I would be tempted to crop the original image enough so that you could put your name, copyright info, and website address on the top of the picture. At the very least, get publicity and a credit from his site. :) You'll need to make the text fairly large so it will still be readable when his site downsamples it. Whatever you do, be professional. You might end up getting good exposure that could lead to better, bigger things. There's no reason to stoop to Drudge's level. -- Eric http://canid.com/
