Are you sure they are not using your picture? they have a picture of one with a big crest, Also look at the photo with the little girl and the duckling doing what we are always telling people not to do.

The thread that the link is on is "New BYC hatchery Review...." the link should be

http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AmXAmgx4qOPEdFgtdGk1YVFDXzFSMWRSaTFYUWQweXc&hl=en

Just so you all can reference it for future use

Did they take down the picture, or are they still using it?

Did you call them and tell them about getting mostly boys? If not, you should. Especially if they are still using your picture without your ok.

Yes and Yes I did. They refused to make it right about the males. At first they were nice and now they are not. They are done with me. So I told them I would spread the word. Here is the pic they were using (before I watermarked it). Now I watermark all my pics.

BTW, that is MY hand in the pic!!

LOL! That duckling is CUTE!!!

I'm sorry to hear about them stealing your photo... apparently it isn't that rare for people's photos to get stollen online. Makes you wonder about how honest they are about every aspect of their buisness when they can't even be honest about their pictures. Sad.

Uh, you might want to use a different approach to watermarking than what that photo shows...they would just crop that part out.

Ugh that is horrible. I have heard nothing but bad things about them lately... I even found a picture of a paif of ducklings on a friends personal webpage that were also on efowl. She is in the process of getting credit for that picture and getting it OFF their site.

Cute! But the thing is, they can still steal the picture and crop off the watermark, since it doesnt appear in the middle of the picture. I mark mine on the bottoms also, I hate the way it looks when it runs through the picture.

 

[Funky Feathers]

Me too. It ruins the picture not just for them, but for me too.

What are you going to do with the ducks they sent?
