# Aye
the Nuts and Zoo crowd had a bunch from here, some of mine included. It's theft, plain and simple.

# Why the hell
do they keep getting away with it? Do they just sit around waiting for class action lawsuits?

# A few have managed to get money from it haven't they? Notably TGA.
Though I think that was in print, not just online.

# Mebbeh
But I suspect that's a case of theft THEN payout if they get caught. So in that regard, tabloids are like MP's...

# What happened was
they started off just taking them and printing them, a bunch of people here complained loudly and often, and they changed their practices slightly, emailing and asking for permission and eventually offering a small payment in some cases.
Personally all I wanted was to be asked so that I could refuse, which is exactly what happened. I didn't want my pics in their shitty publications, paid for or not, and I was definitely not the only person who felt that way.

# Partly it's because most of you lot don't know what to do when your stuff is stolen
I armed Archie with a document that doesn't require rocket science to figure out, it seems he has utilized to maximum effect

www.bapla.org

Or email me if you want their current pricing trends document, including what to claim for if your work has been used by these wankers without your permission
