They keep on popping up with a different URL. Their prices arn't too bad but I dont like their shifty service. We dont even know who it is but it seems like they must frequent this BB because the PR picture of your'se was only posted on the BB right?

They do not want people to see what a poor and unprofessional
setup they have and thus they use pictures from other sources.
Or maybe they do not grow their own mushrooms at all but
rather have decided to be a reseller of spores grown by others.

Here's a link to a photography resource page that gives some tips on protecting your images, the tips are about halfway down the page.

You guys might be able to use java or flash to make it so that you can't save the image. With java you could disable the right click and stuff, but there's still ways to get ahold of the pic. You could use a java applet to show the images though, which would make it tougher for someone to still the pictures (maybe you could use a slideshow applet or just an applet that allows you to change to the next image or something along those lines). With flash, you could also do the applet type thing. Its a little bit of trouble to go through redoing a site like that. You might just want to put your web address somewhere on the image where it couldn't just be cut out of the picture. Still, that wouldn't prevent someone from getting images from this BB or from stealing your descriptions of the strains. Whoever is running that site is a b*tch.

it really isnt that hard to copy a protected picture, just press print screen to get a screen shot, and copy in to paint or some other program. The paint in windows XP allows you to edit and save a s gif and jpeg so its perfect for webgraphics! Go with the shadowing of your url.

I say you just periodically put out a word on the boards about his unethical approach. Then who cares if he steals pics, he is not going to make any money from his site... We all know who the legit comapnies around here are.

Where do these pathetic losers come from? People like this are an absolute disgrace to mankind.
I tried to view the page, its already gone.
Whoever it is is definatly READING THIS THREAD and is here on the shroomery.
Whoever you are, your a loser for trying to scam people like this. I would be willing to bet he does not even send out orders, he is just collecting money and ripping ppl off.
And whoever you are, if you think your getting ahead just a little by ripping these ppls money off ....YOUR NOT. Karma will come back to you for this and it will cost you 10X more money then what little you have just gained. ITs not worth it...so give it up and get a life.
The universe is a powerful energy so stop fucking with its mushrooms

Like I've said before, I lived in Vancouver all during the '80's and never heard of those guys.
Stealing pics is pretty low, almost as low as MANIPULATING them.
