no, that's why i said i don't register copyrights because if i'm not going to sue anybody it's a waste of time - the purpose of registering copyright is that it qualifies you for statuatory damages should you prevail in your case and statuatory damages are much greater, up to 7-8K per infringement and one thumbnail alone is one infringement.
copyright infringement lawsuits like any lawsuit are expensive AND there's always a good chance the infringer will have no assets by the time the suit is over.
