I know how you feel. I found out earlier that some guy stole one of my videos on xhamster and posted it on his channel, entitling it 'my cock' even though it wasn't him (nor did it even look like his avatar) You kinda feel flattered, but really angry, right?
I had one of my cock photos used by a member on squirt.
he still has it up.
Once your photo is out on the internet very little you can do to police it's activity.

I hope you sue for a cut of the running royalties! Let me know when you and Ron go on a nationwide pump-signing tour 
Actually, when I first saw the ad, I did not immediately recognize my own photo. Instead of thinking, "Hey, that's me!", I thought, "Wow, that is a big dick!" :tongue:

Being a huge fan of Cal, his member, and his ability to photograph said member, I let him know when I saw the ad pop up on You Porn yesterday.
I went back today to see if it was still there. Several ads for Ron Jeremy's penis growth special came up, through several refreshes, but none featuring CB...
I didn't recognize any of the other cock shots in the ads, but it wouldn't surprise me if they were also LPSG members.

Well, I finally saw the ad for myself and followed it to the site from which it originates. (Thanks to AlphaMale for referring me to a site where the ad was appearing.) I sent the following message to the advertiser:
I arbitrarily picked the sum of $100 since I consider it extremely unlikely that they will choose to pay me anything when they can easily go steal other pictures off the Web.

Well worded and I think that the payment idea is an excellent one. I hope it works out one way or another. :smile:

I will be interested to see if they at least have the decency to take down your picture. Of course as you have stated, these unscrupulous individuals will just go and steal someone else's picture.
You shouldn't have sold yourself short, 100 bucks?! Makes you wonder how your member affected their overall market in sales. You should have inquired how much Ron Jeremy was given, maybe he is in the same boat as you! Exploited!
I considered the possibility of (1) being vague at this point and inviting an offer and (2) demanding a much greater sum; but I judged that such options would only increase the chance of my getting nothing at all. I think that the most likely outcome in any case, whether they stop using the photo or not, but we shall see.

Hi Calboner. I think you're missing a bigger picture here. You're not being exploited, you're being slandered.
The ad is in regards to penis growth. By using your pictures they are implying that you USED to have a small penis until you used their Miracle Grow Plant Food or whatever the fuck they are calling it.
Since you've never had a small penis, to me, they slandered you. THAT'S the bigger picture you should bring to their attention.
Plus, 100.00????? Are you nucking futs??? Way, way, way, WWWWAAAAYYYYY to little in compensation. Especially if this IS something backed by Ron Jeremy.
Just my 2 cents,
Sklar

It can't possibly be slander when there is no identification of the person in the photo. But it is false advertising. (False advertising for a penis-enlargement product--who would have thought? )
As for the quantity, I've given my reasons. "Way too little" by what measure? Remember that I have no leverage over them. They know that I'm not about to hire a lawyer on the chance that I might be able to make some money out of this.

The measure I would have used would be based upon the pricing of licenses for stock images used for advertising. You asked for way too little! I mean, you certainly wouldn't get rich, but still.

To be honest, I can't imagine them paying him a penny anyway. Asking for more would only make them laugh. At least this way he has made his wishes known and put a little fear into them. If they completely ignore Calboner though and keep the image, then another, more forceful e-mail may be called for!
Plus, it shows that the good Mr Calboner can't be a greedy man - generosity rules! :biggrin1:Similar threads
