Default How do you feel seeing your photos used for profit?

The biggest problem obviously is when your image is being used on a fraudulent website or ebay auction.

When it comes to informational websites, studies, books, etc., I wouldn't mind at all.

Not so sure where I stand on for-profit businesses taking my images for their own sites, but to a certain extent when you "publish" something to the web, it becomes public domain.

Also, you can't always know if permission was granted to use the image when the card/photo was in someone else's collection.

If it were me, I would ask permission.
