I know I have saved pictures from my mom's page or friend's pages to use on my desktop or for other computer projects... it's not that hard for someone to right click and save an image...

Even though I only put 600px watermarked images of clients on Facebook (and by contract only allow them to post the same to their pages), I still blocked all the above photo printing apps. I was able to search for and easily find Walgreen's and Target's by using their names and print in the search box. Thanks very much for this post.

I'm a firm believer that you can really only deter thieves to easier prospects, but as many have pointed out any item is fair game once it's posted online. Wale –

From the filtered list, find the ones you want to block, click them to go to their application page, and then click the "Block Application" link underneath their application profile icon at the top left of the page.

They should only allow you to print photos from your own albums. It's just as simple as that. For some reason, there seem to be so many people who think that posting your photos online immediately translates to loss of copyright. Those people would be wrong. An example would be for artists who post their work online to network with clients and other artists. We should be allowed to do so, and not have people assume it's somehow " our fault " when the images are stolen. That's like saying it would the a sidewalk vendor's fault for someone snatching an item and running because they " made it easier " for the thief by selling outside as opposed to selling in a brick and mortar store. Absolutely BS. The fault lies with the thief. Although we cannot stop everyone from taking images online, such as people who save and print their own copies at home, we should expect companies such as Wal-Mart to know better and not be aiding in the copyright infringement. After all, they are not allowed to print copies of children's school pictures that are taken by other photographers...so I don't know how they think it would be acceptable to offer a printing service to someone so they can print from an album belonging to someone else without their expressed permission.
