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.


Petite is right about the damages measure -- I went through this a couple of years ago with a picture that was used, despite copyright protection, from my sister's flikr account. We made them throw in attorneys' fees as well just to be punitive.

I have to say that this would be a great small claims court (no pun intended) matter. I'd love to see Ron Jeremy explain to The People's Court why he had to use a younger, hotter, firmer, and far less hairy stolen picture in place of his own.

OK....I gotta chime in. My first thought is IF a person makes a living out of selling their photos or in any capacity of modeling, I'd say infringement and damages are probably due BUT when I look at the INTERNET and see millions upon millions of dick photos and while some are professional and the dick (er guy) has probably been compensated, the vast majority are the rest of us...showing off our pride and joy for the world to see, and the more to see it the merrier and without any compensation for said exposure. And God knows we download and save our favorite cock photos off of these sites and pass them around to show how truly magnificent they can be........and then those people do the same thing, and on and on and on...all without compensation.

Let's face it fellas, we all love to show it off, and do it usually anonymously so how upset can you be if you have a magnificent cock that the whole world, bi, gay or straight would either envy to have or at the least to suck dry.......and just enjoy that position of respect/envy/desire/need/ and know that a whole lot of total strangers are fingering their pussy or jacking their cock to the beautiful cock they see in front of them on their computer screen.....and NONE of the majority of the guys with those kind of "stimulus" cocks are getting paid....EXCEPT in the knowledge that their dick is happily being passed around to the minions....which is why we ALL proudly display our cock photos in the first place for total strangers to view or drool over.....and to quote a past President.....MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!

If a guy claims to actually be the owner of said cock and he really isn't, won't the truth cum out when he drops trou and the other person sees it first hand....and won't that prove that he's a liar? Also if a person claims to be possessor of said cock ONLY on the internet.....what's the harm of a few "wanna be's" out of MILLIONS living a lie....which seems to be the going thing on the INTERNET (inflated incomes, heights, lesser weight, job positions, living styles, net worth, and how about AGE?) Yup boys and girls......just the INTERNET where anybody can be anybody with a few words and a photo AS LONG as they NEVER see anybody they meet on the internet.....just let the very few imposter's bask in their contrived glory and enjoy their pathetic dream world lives....no harm and no foul!


As far as commercial endeavors go in using your cock without your expressed permission, please bask in the ego trip that they selected your beautiful cock out of a lot of cocks to draw the rest of us in to loosen our wallets or just browse for free thrills....and after all fellas and ladies, but mostly the guys here.....aren't we all PAYING to be on this site and this site is making money with us not only posting our dick photos for all to see, but they're making money and you're not....twice too. First you pay to post. and second, the rest of us pay to see what you posted and you were not just NOT compensated....you actually paid to let this site make money off of your photos and isn't that far worse if you're talking about a lack of compensation to the dick owner......seems logical huh?

I hope we're all happy now and can call off the lawyers, and stop trying to convince the poor guy he could be retired for just being compensated for his dick photos.....but CALBONER if you ever decided to get into the escort business.........then my friend you'd have a PAYING line out the door and you'd be dehydrated from shooting so many loads in so many PAYING mouths to suck you dry....bi, gay or straight, women or men.......and I'd be the first to pony up the dough!!!

Here's an item good for a laugh, found under "Men seeking men" on Craigslist by a member of this site:
Craigslist said:
34 y/o athletic in shape bottom looking for similar hung tops 18-40 y/o for safe regular fun, FWB or simple NSA.
Very discreet, laid back/easy going, ddf, neg, clean. Semi-hairy chest, buzzed head, well groomed, masculine guy's guy.
6'1" 190 blue eyes, brown hair, 33w.

Include pics of yourself, stats, interests/into and what you're looking for in your reply.
Accompanied by four photos of me (5' 9", 160 pounds). Does this bozo actually plan to meet with respondents?

I'm going to send him a note saying "Don't you think that your respondents are going to be disappointed when they find out that you don't look anything like the guy in your photos?"; so the page could be gone by the time you read this.

Wait, wait, wait, let me get this straight (...straight...straight); a member of this site went to Craigslist, posted an ad of a sexual nature, and then used your pictures after having asked for a reply?


What possible purpose could that serve? I've seen ads posted where they say "picture not related" or whatever but that's usually of some famous porn star that everybody knows is a porn star, ya know? You should send him a note saying that without your express permission it's illegal to do what he's doing and while generally speaking it's not that big of a deal, that's only so because most of the time that it happens one never knows or finds out who it was doing the re-posting. No so in your case though.


Honestly... what a weird thing to do.

No, a member of this site found that somebody had posted an ad on Craigslist using my pictures. I can't understand how you managed to get things so bizarrely turned around.

A member here found that somebody had posted an ad on Craigslist using your pictures versus a member here posting an ad on Craigslist using your pictures...

A.) what's so "bizarrely" turned around about that?
and
B.) All I read was your last reply, not the entire preceding four pages.

"Here's an item good for a laugh, found under "Men seeking men" on Craigslist by a member of this site:"

Having re-read that sentence it makes sense with your clarification but when I first read it, it sounded like someone from here was responsible for it (which, by the way, is why I asked to make certain I was getting it right.)


Seriously... take it easy.

Already down...I missed the pix...dammittohell!:cool:

I know, I know...I can see your pix here anytime I want but I won't get to enjoy that particular ad campaign. Did I tell you that I've seen that Ron Jeremy ad with you in it a few times?

(a) Well, what you said was turned around, and in its original version, not in the simplified version that you post here, it seemed to me bizarre. (b) My post did not in any way depend on the preceding posts.

The link still works for me. I'm attaching a screen capture in any event.

Craigslist is scammy as all get out. Although I did find my current townhome there, well my wife did. So I guess it ain't all bad.

Fucking gold. I like the $100 demand. It's kind of like Dr Evil asking for one meeeellion dollars in Austin Powers.

I do a similar thing when somebody takes my parking spot in ye olde neighborhood. I leave a SASE that says '$5 Parking' on the windshield. Few actually send the cash, but I get no repeaters.
