*Last warning:* Get rid of that part of your website that contains copyright material belonging to me that you are using in a derogatory manner intended to damage my reputation ...*before midnight on 9th August 2009* Do your worst. You have stated -unambiguously- on this forum, that my webpage assists your business and increases your sales. Do I get a commission? The law allows for fair use for the purposes of parody or satire - not to mention review. http://www.mendosus.com/photography/doug.html I have (ever since day 1) scrupulously attributed the work (!) to you. That's my whole point, Doug - that it *is* yours. I have never - would never - even consider passing it off as my own. (ewwww...) Read the page above very carefully, Doug. The most damning statements - by far - were written by *you* (the right-hand panel) All I've done is point them out (the left-hand panel.) Answer your critics, Doug. Justify your claims. Your "legal team" may contact me at the (100% valid and active) address I gave you earlier. I await your correspondence. Oh, and BTW - the other two URLs are loaded up and ready to be publicised at a moment's notice. They're both hosted anonymously and internationally. I have no idea *who* in this forum may be willing to mirror my webpage.... Doug, there's no need for you to tell further lies about threatened legal action. Just post the "stepped-out pano" and I promise - hand on heart - I'll remove the webpage and apologise. You know - the image you have repeatedly claimed you made. Ball's in your court. Go for it. -- Jeff R. |

In 2000, moral rights were recognised in Australian copyright legislation. The moral rights provided under Australian law now a A right of attribution. Which is provided. I had to *add* it to the images, to avoid any misunderstanding. To be precise: *I* added the watermark on the images with *your* name. The right to be clearly and reasonably prominently identified as the author, in any reasonable form. See above The right to avoid false attribution, where the work is falsely presented as being another's work ...Integrity of authorship. See above *The right to not have the work treated in a derogatory manner (this is a right to protect the honour and reputation of the author).* Truth is a defence here. I simply presented what you originally presented yourself - and then I pointed out your lies. Good luck establishing "honour and reputation" there, Doug. Look at the defamatory language *you* used - and continue to use. I quote you - in this forum - from a few days ago: "...I often refer people to Jeff Ralph's site for a laugh. Anyone who's seen or bought my marine photos has probably seen the one he's helped sell for me... " Good luck proving damage to reputation or business. I take the above statement by you as implied permission to publish - not that I need it, of course. Its just nice to know that I have your approval and blessings. I re-state: Where is my commission for the "sale" of your prints? (To cover my costs re marketing and advertising of your "product") Do I have to threaten legal action to get my fair cut? -- Jeff R. |

(directed to D-Mac) One Q. Given what you've posted here and all the vitriol and lies you've been spewing for years, how could anyone possibly damage your reputation? Someone thanked him for advice, and complimented him for his knowledge once. I'd call that *severe* damage to his reputation. -- Jeff R. |
