Some pics from yesterday of my friend's rust patinated 1965 VNS (a Swedish version of VNB) in my garage. Lights off, camera on a tripod, 20 seconds exposure and a flashlight to "light paint".

Are those photos you took? Cause from your post it sounds like you found them on the internet, which contradicts your watermarking. Its one thing to post images found on google, everyone does that and few photographers would find that concerning. Its a whole nother thing to misrepresent them as yours, which is basically stealing.

Not photos I took, I just hosted them. My immageshack account applies my logo to all uploaded images.

As far as "stealing" is concerned. Seriously? I will label them as not mine if it will calm your overexcited ego.

Tap the brakes bro. It's not that serious and it does look like the photos are from you with that logo and all. You will have to admit that it can be confusing. Along with walking the line of fair use of intellectual property and just bland advertisement on the site, adding your logo is not the norm. He just called it out before anyone else. The admins can decide if its wrong or right.
Please don't take offense to small things like that around here.

Good luck with your project!

Not mine, but I thought it deserved snapping anyway (especially with those rather snazzy green rims + white walls)..

Off in the cafe with the daughter, son in law, wife and 4 grandkids. 2 eldest came on the scooter in the pouring rain we have in Lampeter and loved. Taryn wants one of her own when she a bit older 😊

My scoot and behind it a Buch of hardcore patched bikers, Not a great pic and I'm not sure which gang but I really don't want to draw attention to myself. I have nothing against Harley riders and actually had a great 45 minute chat with a guy that parked next to me with an HD that was in leathers and fully the part. These folks in the background though were the "other" type of Harley riders...

We talked about everything but part of it was he was a rocker back in the day in Scotland and know all about Mods etc. One thing I LOVE about riding is meeting people.

Pic was taken in Port Dover. Anyway from Ontario will get the connection between Dover and bikers.
