Old News; Do I Care Anymore? -- Alert! Unauthorized(???) Use by http://mapsights.com/
Randomly, about a quarter of my geo-tagged Pano photos (like this one) are now on mapsights.com without my authorization or knowledge ...

... and no, I did not copywrite nor name-imprint any of the photos I uploaded to Panoramio, relying on their protection instead ...

... (subsequently, I have heard from a big-gallery Pano user [New York/New Jersey] that 'Mapsights' is an API that Panoramio authorized a long time ago to use Pano shots ... don't know how reliable that info is) ...

Same thing I discovered. They have obviously uploaded large quantities of photos from Panoramio to populate their site with places to see and things to do. I've had a few stolen before, but never this many for a single site. (Yes, attribution, unlike some others!)

Yes I have found lots too, but they note my copyright and credit the images to me so I'm not that bothered really

Is a beautiful image, yes, they always, in panoramio geotap in google maps I have several that appear in the google map currently, however there are people who can steal them, because I have plagiarized several that I have seen on Flickr under the name of another author.It is something that if I do not look in other galleries I would not have been able to check it, Best regards Happy day of the harvest

A lovely image and I'd not previously heard of mapsights.com. It seems the use of images is all from Panoramio, so not being a member I don't expect to see any of mine there. That said, I've had them 'borrowed' without attribution in the past, which is why I always now watermark them.
