I would imagine you would have to have had the pics copyrighted before it's infringement.

No, you don't need to copyright family photos do you?

Get them to put a credit to the site.

No idea.

Contact them, see what happens... maybe he can get a few bucks out of it.

What I do know is that even IF they say "Fuck you, we're using the picture, so get used to it..." He's not going to bring a lawsuit, so it really doesn't matter.

Right.... but I could send him a DMCA notice if I wanted to pursue it. If I got the FU response after that, I could forward it to his web host and get his site shut down.

There are plehnty of effective things I could do short of filing a lawsuit...

I emailed earlier today. No response yet.

The moment a photograph is taken, it is considered a copyrighted work of the photographer's.

I'm not going to make a big deal out of this, but I am going to contact them. They should have asked first.

Im sure he isnt making that much money off it. He simply wants to get credited and maybe a talkingpoker link on the site somewhere or something.
