    I suppose posting the entire scenario in the middle of the first page wasn't a good idea. I've edited the entire scenario into my first post due to slight confusion.

    Why bother? If someone took one of my photos and put it on DeviantArt, I would never ever ever bother with a lawsuit. If a professional photographer took my photos and put it on their website pretending that it was their work (and this isn't uncommon) then yes, I'd threaten them with lawyers. Threaten. I can't imagine anyone in their right mind wouldn't take those photos off right away just from the mention of a lawyer.

    I know photographers who have had their entire websites ripped and copied. Including the copyright tags! It's like Stupid Criminals meets the internet.

    Silly goobers.

    contact them and then ask them to remove it. if they posted it on a website that is not their own, PM to the admin. last follow-up will most likely be a lawsuit. i don't have to take it out like an animal and make threats.
