I asked this person to remove the image she had taken from my website and used as her FB profile picture.I received:

"I know this isnt mine. This is a decoy page for my ex husband so he will not find my real one with my real info on it. I didnt say I took this pic. It says my favorite. Theres no crime in saying that you have a favorite picture. I said no where that I took this nor does it say that you cant take pictures off line to let people see what you like. Thanks! "

I wonder, if she got a nice letter from an attorney, suggesting how easy it would be to give this revelation to her husband, how quickly she would comply with a take down request.
Would this woman have come up to your table in a restaurant and walked off with your wine because it happened to be her favorite?
I'm so tired of people who don't grasp that lifting work from a website is like walking off with another person's bottle of wine.
It's stealing.
If she didn't attribute the work to you, then she's a thief, plain and simple, and I would have called her one while sending her a copy of the current copyright laws. She must attribute the work to you, preferably with a link to you and your contact information.
