Looks like it's time to brush upon copyright law, might I suggest as a non-lawyer, that you don't go with the "no copyright notice" or no "cease and desist" as your defense, that is not going to work very well.

LOL...honorable and professional, don't forget you're dealing with some of the biggest a-holes on the planet!

me snarky?? really??
Actually it was kinda both, you are "special" in many ways...but your "case" was a good example of someone having balls and a spine to stand up to these asswipes... Which in my book makes you extra special...the fact that you're a Black hawks fan, makes you special on a different level.

They did not sue me over 50 images.  Many people, even on this board, thought they would.

You're a special case.

Getty will most likely NOT sue over a single image, it's not worth the hassle for what they may "win"....9 images different story

If you're not sure about other images, you should remove them to be safe, there are many companies trolling, and you may be targeted by them going forward.
If you pay the 150.00, be sure to get something in writing to end it.

Getty Images Letter Forum / Re: Joel Albrizio (Adlife) Allegedly Threatens to "Destroy" "Ruin Life" of ELI Membr

I certainly appreciate the ELI support, we'll see how this shakes out going forward, in the mean time I will continue to research and report. While I certainly don't want to deal with any lawsuits, I won't give up my rights to freely state my opinions and post factual information. Joel may point fingers at me for slamming him and his "business practices", but the truth of the matter is, his reputation was tainted long before I came into the picture, and that is well documented.

You're Welcome!! It has been pointed out several times, that I have a unique writing style...to say the least.. I realize some people don't really appreciate the colorful language, but it does succeed in getting under the trolls skin.

yeah this fucktard is just another piss ant troll, that needs to be stomped right out of business....Ask anyone that knows me, and you'll quickly learn that I'm one of the most honest people you'll ever run into, yeah I'm blunt and I can be crude..so what, don't like it, don't read it. These douche-bags continue to rub me the wrong way, with that being said, I'll be pissing in Joels cheerios very soon... You and anybody that visits Eli or copyright trolls will be getting a glimpse of the real Joel Albrizio...One can only hope he teaches his kids better than how he behaves...

Stay tuned..

seems I ruffled some feathers, and Jerk-off Joel has responded to my post...Personally I love the fact that he called me a thief several times, and that I stole from his company...i'm awaiting a formal apology and retraction of those statements.

I can see where the photo was listed on istock and getty, but they probably removed it at some point. If you licensed the image through them or others, I would login and find out if the download is still there and any receipts of purchase, license info, etc. Someone else mentioned they licensed the photo at some point. This leads me to think it's a setup, which is why I now refuse to use stock images.

if the image was available on istock, getty or elsewhere, it is up to them to prove you infringed...You don't have to supply them with anything, the burden..100% of it is on them. A screen capture is NOT proof of infringment, it's only proof that the image appeared on the site...

From my research, I don't think that has much bearing if they actually want to take you to court. I imagine a lot of IP cases take place outside the copyright holder's state. I find it interesting that their current suits are in Massachusetts, yet the defendants were from Texas, South Carolina, etc. Maybe someone can shed light on that, which I would be interested in hearing.

If the defendants are outside of Mass., they should file for dismissal, as the court venue is not correct..the plaintiff MUST file in the federal court where the defendant resides/does business..
