Isn't it annoying when Ebay sellers use your bike pics to sell their stuff?

    I was trawling ebay then saw a used broken seat cowl for sale and using my bike photo to sell the item.

    I asked the guy to remove it but sure he wants to!

    Unless you have copyright on your picture once posted on the web it is free for anybody's use. I think it is a compliment though as your picture was chosen amongst other he may have looked at !!

    Yes very true, but not exactly proud of being used to sell a broken seat cowl

    True, it could have been used to sell something a lot nicer and not broken either!!
