I am a bit affronted by your tone. You use the word "grabbed" instead of "downloaded" which implies I took them like some kind of thief. No I did not grab them; I downloaded pics that were freely offered. There are hundreds of web sites out there with links to gallery pages. Once you go to these pages, you are then free in most cases to download the pics there. Kinda like a free samples page from the producer who is hoping you will go their pay site and join. To this end, there is advertising and a link provided.

Example - I go to one of my favorites: http://www.maxshemales.com/main.shtml. There I find numerous links to other free hosting gallery pages along with many pages of samples. I pick out one I wish to look at and go there; in this case it is http://galleries.hotwendywilliams.com/gallery/t=british/s=47lisa/i=1834419 which is one of yours. Since she is acceptable, I download the pics. And I am done there. Nowhere do I see a claim of copyright which forbids the further dissemination of the pics. The closest thing is that each pic has a small logo on it which says Hot Wendy Productions on it.

Now are you trying to tell me that none of your income is derived from the benefits of this process. Are you saying that you don't have new paying members join as a result of these free pics? Of course not. Whether I join or not is irrelevant, many do. And we will not even get into the subject of cookies, trojans, malware, etc that are foisted onto site visitors without their knowledge. Not saying your sites do this, but many sites do. As you well know, this forum has a rule limiting the number of pics and asks members to identify the site they came from. That is sufficient. And fair.

For you to come on here and plead for a lower limit is ridiculous. I say if you don't like, it then limit your distributed free pics to 3 per shoot. That would be a surefire way to ensure your aim here. I seriously doubt you are willing to do this in the competative market you are in. I also doubt whether the amount of sharing here affects your business all that much, in fact I would guess it is microscopic in figures.

Final words:

"I think you are barking up the wrong tree"

and

"Why buy the cow when you are happy with the free milk."

P.S. While I was composing this, I see other posts have been made. I will agree with you that the posting of material by members who have joined your sites and then proceed to post what I assume is copywrited and restricted material is ethically wrong. I would also agree that you have the right to try and stop these actions. I suggest you concentrate you efforts at your own sites. Perhaps you could encode information in the digital information of each pic that would allow you to identify the culprits; or would that be too cost prohibitive?
