I wonder where he will appear next?
Maybe he’s already here??? :shock:
What I’m thinking, if it’s clearly the same photo, which it is, then maybe Andy
“borrowed” it from Martin. Or maybe Andy _is_ Martin.You’re making me paranoid Alan,
However, the fact that the names, addresses, webpages, emails and telephone numbers tie up suggests to me that this is a real name and a real business for this gentleman.
It’s altogether very strange indeed.
The detective work continues.
Pete,
You saw me shivering in that cold, dark cave in my underpants. How can you say such a thing. Hehe
Unless Martin was living somewhere at the back, like a Gollum ready to pounce. !!!!!!!

I saw SOMEONE in that cave who said he was you, but now I’m not so sure.
I must admit that I have the same shocking experience of seeing someone in underpants, with a scottish accent, shivering in that cave.
Glad to see his account is down now. I wonder did he remove it or did they suspend him.
Banned by the looks of it Gary,
His photograph gallery is now removed from imagekind too

I saw something a few months ago that claimed to be a search engine for images over the net. That is, you load an image and press search and it comes back with matches for that particular image. The marketing blurb made it look pretty effective (doesn’t it always). I didn’t bookmark it and it may be difficult to find again but I’ll try and pull it out.

i posted this in one of my flickr groups and they got onto it as well!
“Wow. I checked his photos out in depth. I found several EXIF data tags that he forgot to delete. I found TWO where the photographer actually put their name into the EXIF, and guess what? They don’t match. ;-)
I’ve emailed one who I found via the net through his name search. The other is
“Artist Name: Stephen Caldwell”
I didn’t post this to the thief in case anything needs to be proven, didn’t want him to pull it.Some people have a LOT of nerve.
He’s going to freak out when he sees all these comments about him being sooo busted.OH…and found this too…this appears to really be him?
http://www.imagekind.com/MemberProfile.aspx?MI … -0345-41...I’ve asked my ferret in Dungannon to see if there is anything on the grapevine. If she can’t find out, no one can.
I tried Tineye. It was a bit unimpressive at the time but it may have improved.
It was more for pasting in a pic of a dozen blokes eating lunch on a half-built
skyscraper and seeing 100 variations on the theme.UPDATE…
Only seeing this now for the first time…
I feel sorry for the guy… I mean how demented must he be to be nicking pics and putting ’em on Flickr for the sake of a few Gold Stars or “Better than God” awards?
If I was going to go to the effort of nicking pics… putting ’em up on Flickr would be the last thing I’d do with ’em. I use Flickr for hosting & organization, but never bothered with the tagging and the Gold stars, and Shiny Trophies sh-te.
