have personally left a site because of this trend towards sharing. I have not shared photos on sites except blogger because of it. Keep sharing this type of information. I find it very helpful and it makes blogger more safer to blog and post pictures of artwork. This might be a dumb question, but... I've put the code on my blog, but what is to prevent someone from right clicking/downloading my image from Blogger, then pinning it, presenting it as their own image? If they do this, is there no link to my blog, therefore no way of me tracking my images? Is there a way to code Blogger to prevent people from taking my images? I upload them at low quality to discourage reprinting, but that won't discourage reposting. Or am I misunderstanding how images on Blogger work? Thanks, and thanks so much for keeping us all in the know! Erica - there are ways round the meta tag - which is why the long term solution has to be about educating people about copyright and respect for people's rights and their images - particularly those of people who make a living from them People walk into a store and see lots of very nice things lying around. However the bulk of people are not thieves and realise they have to visit the till before they walk out the door with a nice item. So what's the difference with images on the Internet? I'm happy to give people permission
