Wow, that's pretty blatant copyfraud. Anyone who owns those images should have a pretty good case to sue him. On Wed, Jan 3, 2018 at 10:45 AM, Tuszynski, Jarek W. < JAROSLAW.W.TUSZYNSKI(a)leidos.com&gt; wrote:

I think this is one instance where the WMF Legal should act on behalf of the all the photographers rather than leave it to individuals who may not have the ability to hire someone. This would set a very clear precedent about sch activities from images Donated to WMF projects, WMF, WLM team, and the wider community have moral obligation to ensure that the rights of those that contributed to the competition are respected.

That said, perhaps we should think about integrating a link to a CC-friendly printshop that can produce prints roughly at cost, perhaps with the WP URL and license on the back. (prints are basically the only service 'fineartamerica' provides.) In the US I use shortrunposters, ~$4 for a 2'x3' print (so, 5% the cost of fineartamerica); I bet there are others.

This competitor send a mail to this website and asked if WMFR can help in any way. So now, I'm sending you this mail to know whether you had to deal with things like this or if you have any ideas of what should be done.
