Well, this site does have it's down times and that could, inconveniently, be right when viewing is desired. So, put them on tumblr instead of just in a list.
True... and although he lists the models MM membership number... he make NO reference to who the photographer was... ... ... and as of the last few minutes... he's STILL adding images to it...
I've posted photos of an MM model I shot on other venues; deviantart, flikr and photocamel, along with her name and MM#. For one thing, the extra "exposure" might lead someone to start an account here to shoot with her. For another, the number one reason I'm here is to take photos I can share.
What are they advertising ?
I dont see any claim of ownership of the images
The fact that they have links to the source is far above the effort the normal tumblr poster would put in
I wonder if there's a lot of these kinds of lists around...I've had some people recognize me, and they weren't photographers or anyone who would have actual business to come to this place.

I didn't say illegal usage or copyright infringement. I made no mention of ownership whatsoever. He called it the "sexy girls of MM." I said "false advertising".
I guess the nuances of the English language escape you. Please tell me your favorite comedy isn't Porky's Revenge.

Yes, lots. Perhaps run image searches if you want to know where else your images are appearing.

I don't mind the extra exposure, however I don't like the fact that this person didn't ask my permission to use my photo.
If it's the photographer doing this then that's fine because they have right's to the photo's however a stranger should at least have the respect to ask our permission first.
As for the "curvy woman" vs. "everyone else" argument that's starting on here, I don't think this is the place for those discussions nor do I think it's worth anyone arguing about. Everyone has their own preference.
I can agree to that, but again it's the internet. I've seen lots of people post pics of models on tumblr with no links, credits, permission nor the models knowledge of their pics being on there. At least the person is crediting the models, and as far as not crediting the photographers goes. Not all models credit photographers, I believe the photographers credits reside in the watermarks they put on each picture

I don't see any arguments starting...LOL. And if you don't like the exposure, then contact that person to have any possible pictures of you removed.

I'd have been more concerned if you were not on such a list.

I would be glad if anyone ask before using my images
