I have to say 500px has some utterly amazing images on it. This morning I spotted this pointing out some utterly disgraceful and blatant copying from one of the members. There's even mention that the person in question commented on the original photographer's image that their watermark should be smaller :nono:

I know the only safe way to stop your images being copied is not to publish them but this is even beyond what we should expect of fellow photographers (if indeed that's what they are).

That's the net at it's worst :bang:
 
You wonder what these people are thinking about when they do it the mind boggles.
 
500PX are quite good for chasing cheats.

I've had a number of my images stolen and used by various sites. I have informed 500 and they have chased the sites for me to have the images removed.
 
How do you actually know/find out if your image has been stolen/used elsewhere?
