They aren't stealing them, they are crediting you and linking to your flickr images. This will happen if you put images on a public site like flickr.

You would think they would have the decency to actually ask before they link to and use your images ! Personally I would ask them to remove them asap. Then quote them for the appropriate use

Don't worry about it - all they're doing is acting as a portal that directs visitors to your site. If you're getting a lot of hits it only shows the power of the Internet. Why not e-mail them and ask them to link direcly to www.gwphotographer.co.nr – could lead to added business.

Great shots by the way – the mini with the lightning behind is very good.

As others have said George, their not stealing. It should generate a wee bit of traffic for you.

Replace the image for a picture of a turd.

Genius.

Then you'll be forever associated with crap photography.

I'm not fussed about them using my photo, as I am always happy for more people to see my pictures! I might ask for a link to my website though

It is nice that people are using my pictures in a way, even if they are a rather random website
