Wow. How in the hell did I miss all this fun?
[QOUTE]Dear Moderators at Chiefsplanet.com,
It has come to my attention that a poster with the handle "irishjayhawk" has posted an image of a photograph taken by myself of a t-shirt depicting the burning of Lawrence, KS with the word “Scoreboard” under the photo on your message board entitled, "Doom Lounge" (
http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=174410). I have reserved all rights in the photo as the photographer.
As the poster neither asked for nor received permission to use the photo on your message board, I believe the poster has infringed my rights under 17 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq. and could be liable for statutory damages as high as $150,000 as set forth in Section 504(c)(2) therein.
I demand that you immediately cease the use of this photo and that you desist from this or any other infringement of my rights in the future. If I have not received an affirmative response from you by Friday, November 16, 2007 indicating that you have fully complied with these requirements, I shall take further action against you.
Very truly yours,
Kyle Hudson
