Ebay seller stole my picture

Sucks that they can get by with it but unless you have your photos copywrited
the internet is fair game. A quick e-mail to get your permission would be the nice thing to do. tmm

I think if you post them on a public site and don't have them copyrighted they are fair game.

THIS IS not true

Your work is automatically copyrighted, unless it is pirated from someone else

From here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright_law_of_the_United_States

"While copyright in the United States automatically attaches upon the creation of an original work of authorship, registration with the Copyright Office puts a copyright holder in a better position if litigation arises over the copyright"

Of course the above is US law in Canada? A quick Google shows about the same law applies
