Exclamation Gallery Picture Stolen!!!

This surprised the hell outta me!!!

http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI...tem=1699151028

That seller is the guy I got my NSX-GT detail set from, so I have him saved as a favorite seller, so I can watch his items. I was flipping through his stuff and I found that item. I saw the picture and thought to myself "Damn! That sure does look familiar..."

It's Warren's R390 from the gallery!!! I am absolutly sure; he didn't even change the filenames I used!!! The guy's using Warren's model, which is box-stock, to sell his detail set!!! WTF?????????

Warren, obviously this is a compliment to your modeling skill. I just think it kinda rotten he didn't ask. (Though I regularly steal other people's pics. But I would have given some credit...) You're welcome to email they guy if you like; I haven't sent him anything about it...

To be honest i dont really know what to say.
I think its good that our forum is starting to spread out over the net.
Everytime i do a search on google looking for models i see links to AF

I wouldn't worry! The net wouldn't be the place it is if we all had to worry about copyrights on each others pictures!!!
I think it is a complement for Warren!!!!
