I honestly do not like uploading images on my site anymore because of it.

I realized this when I was looking at a card on TCDB and said “wow that looks just like my copy” …then realized they had stolen (likely) a thousand+ images.

Kind of a shitty thing to do actually.
Was that for a gallery like this 1919 set?

If so, a mix of people uploaded those images, including these members. Each image links to the person who uploaded it.

I believe individuals submit all card images to TCDB, so if you'd prefer cards that belong to you are removed, try asking TCDB to strike them using a page's "See any inaccuracies?" link. You might also ask in their forum what options exist.
