Thank you all so much for your input. I have just scanned in my letter and sent off my request for the Getty Defense Letter Program.  I think given my present circumstances this is definitely the best option for me.

Getty Images Letter Forum / Received a letter, stressed

« on: April 04, 2012, 08:35:50 AM »

Hello there - so relieved to find this forum.  I am a freelance designer and stay at home mom, currently pregnant with #2.  Yesterday I received this letter, the screenshot they are showing is my site's old design and the page is for an old client mock-up from early 2009 that never went live.  Of course I simply removed the page and all associated files, it was just an oversite that it was still there after 3 years. The image in question is one from a free background images site and I can find the image repeatedly still from these sources.  I just don't understand how a company can get away with this type of letter with no warning. I was reading about the letter program and the idea of just not having to deal with them sounds nice - but what has the end outcome been for most?  I read though everything for hours last night and cannot decide which direction to go.
