Hello CIDians,
For quite some time, I've been seeing people using our siggies on facebook pages. To add to it, the siggies are cropped and only a part of it is being posted in the pages and groups. Few of the siggy makers whose siggies I've noticed, have been cropped and used are, debasree, myself etc.

Regarding the originality I do not know if they give the makers the due credit, but they crop it in such a way that the copyright is cut off.

How can we curb this?

Most of them get it by googling keywords of our siggies.
Maybe we should have used copy codes to block them from receiving the siggies on google search

if we use copy code, then none can use that on IF also

Really, there's nothing that can be done. No matter what you do, you can use the simple print screen button from Windows and copy ANYTHING.

Legally, you can file a case and may even win, but the amount of effort and money that goes into it is too much, so you can just get angry at their indecency. That's all.

Will adding a copyright in a way that however you try to crop it , part of it will be visible, help? But that will involve covering the entire siggy with our copyright 🤔
