When will this ever stop.  Another company trying to profit from the hard work of others.

I recognize pictures from at least three people that I know and I am sure there are more.

I always worry when photos vary so much in quality and style.

I think everyone needs to start watermarking their pictures straight through the middle so they can't be cropped. I have just downloaded an app to do it as even though I don't sell my balloons I don't want anyone to use my pictures.(not sure if they would want to- but just in case.)

I think we will all suffer from photo theft at some point, it saddens me to see out happen and it's sad when we have to take such precautions.

I think if you find them on Facebook you should tag that person in them!

Can we not post a question on their wall asking them why they have stolen other peoples photos?

I use an app called eZyWatermark to put a watermark on mine. It is very easy to use and is free!  :)

the only consolation is the knowledge that they will come to grief when someone asks for a creation that is pictured, but they they cannot make.

I noticed that someone on their page has asked for a Rapunzel.......look out in requests and help for anyone asking for help with a Rapunzel design !!!!!!

Is the balloon horse and carriage theirs? Seems strange that a balloon Cinderella has been cropped out of the photo.

4 friends messaged me that one of my bride and groom pics was being used. I saw that a few people had liked it, and were making enquries about it. I messaged each of them telling them it was not Party packages, but mine, and not to expect the same quality if they ordered one.

I also put a message on their facebook page, as did many others, but all these comments have disappeared !!
Kind regards

How many pictures has this guy stolen?

We should all bombard every picture he's uploaded with "Picture theft, this person has stolen balloon images"
