Does anyone know who runs the "Over-the-Rhine, Cincinnati" Facebook page? They blatantly stole numerous photographs from my site without attribution, credit or payment, then wrote, "These photos aren't all by Randy Simes of UrbanCincy.com but enough are that he deserves all the credit."

 

I gotta protect my IP, so I'm curious as to who operates this page. Thanks.

Wow you are right. It looks like someone is really naive.

I deactived my account awhile ago but can still see that page publicly at http://www.facebook.com/OverTheRhine.  Looks like your photos are gone now. 

 

I searched for an UrbanOhio fan page and didn't find one.  Someone who runs UO should make one.  I'm sure it would be popular.

Yeah, whoever publishes that page issued an apology (thanks to a particular UO user who contacted the page owner). I wish that it was easier to contact the page owner (a continued gripe by me, but it's a Facebook issue).

 

"This facebook page apologizes to Sherman Cahal of UrbanUp.net for using some of his photographs without attribution. The album was deleted because we do not know which were photographs taken by him. Visit his site: http://www.urbanup.net for more of his correctly attributed photos. The creators of this page do not o...wn any photos of OTR but would love to share some via this fan page. Please let us know if you have any and would like to share them with the world - correctly attributed of course."
