I understand all that but if i were to have a picture of something on the internet i wouldnt complain if someone else used it.....because this is the internet and if you did not want something viewed or used you should not have put this on....besides i took a pic that had no copyright

placing a picture on the internet for public *viewing* is very much different from someone taking that same picture, without the authors permission, and using it for monitary gain such as you did in your auction. did you ever stop to consider perhaps the people in the photos you stole don't want to be associated with your product? i'll save you the trouble... i for one, do not!

Since you are assuming my pictures aren't protected under US copyright laws, i suggest you do some reading because you're obvisously not aware that there are many different types of copyright law. I suggested you start with the Berne Copyright Convention which protects privately and orginally created works.
