OK just so everyone is shooting form the same place ? remains with the originator of the image for a minimum of 50 years ( i believe this has or will soon be extended to 75 years) it dose not have to be registered to be ? although its advisable. Each copyright infringement is punishable by a fine of up to $150,000 per infringement ( that is not per image ) So if you find 10 images being used on a website on one page that is 1 infringement.

Since 1995 we have successful sued and won 6 cases of copyright thief both on and off the internet but its a long costly affair. You should go after the ISP if you get no joy from the webmaster of the website. Put everything in writing and get a return receipt for each letter sent, good luck
