Post by Rob »

Uk Classifieds again....what would we do without them?

http://www.aquarist-classifieds.co.uk/p ... 3&de=14283

Two fish for sale in essex for £250 .......very very steep price..

Apparently a male and a female, difficult to tell from the photo's however.

if you are interested , get some bigger photo's and try and get the price down would be my advice!!!

I love his comment "probably the last time you'll see these for sale" ;)

Good luck to him is what I say !!! ;)

I'm sure he'll find someone who's either willing or gullible enough to pay the price !!

Expect to see more of the same, I guess that some people just can't pass up the opportunity of making a quick buck.

I'm pretty sure that I saw these fish up for sale last week some time.

I did send him a mail asking him to kindly remove the link to my LDA33 on my webserver.

He could have asked, or even better, he could have linked to this forum and did everybody a favour.

I set the link right to the other posting ;)

What a cheek :roll:

:o :o He got off lightly if you ask me. I myself have had this done to me numerous times, whether it be a photo of fish or avatars ect.

What I usually do is upload a photo (don't ask me what kind :roll: ) and overwrite the file that these idiots are linking to. The new pic is then displayed instead of the image or file they were trying to link to. :twisted: :twisted: They soon change it. :twisted:

You're so bad Dr. P! :lol:

I must admit that briefly, *very* briefly, I hardly noticed it, the thought of publishing a picture with "thief!" or something on it crossed, no - not crossed, it kinda just flew past like a whisper, in my mind. Then it disappeared :lol:

I have teenagers in the house, I'm a very very patient person :lol:

In the future, if you're in for a bit of sport...

Just change the "picture" the link points to to a diagram you make in Photoshop and save as a .jpg, but something along the lines of:

"The picture that was being used here was mine. It did not belong to this person, they did not have the decency to ask my permission, and they were stealing my bandwidth. If you are contemplating some business dealings with him, you might keep that in mind!"

The guy that was doing it to me regularly for his auctions on aquabid stopped most abruptly after a couple of his pictures "became" that banner, let me tell you :p I heard he was quite angry, but it's not like anything I said was untrue! I made another one for a different person that was not quite so polite, also :p
