Re: Warning: eBay will be using photos without creators' permission
I don't sell on eBay, but I REALLY likee your idea. If your ID and the date is large enough to be seen, it should make your images useless for any scammers to try and employ. I also suggest placing this ID in the middle, or in an area where a scammer can't crop out the ID without rendering the image useless.

Re: Warning: eBay will be using photos without creators' permission
I have said it more than once on here,ebay is a joke.And it just gets funnier on there.I have stopped going on there(my personal boycott,i guess)for almost a year now.I used to buy on there and sell on there but when they went to paypal only,well i stopped going on there.This picture thing is just another example that ebay has no clue what they are doing over there.If you make changes,it's suppose to better your buisness.I mean all the changes they have made starting with the feedback,and then paypal and now this are changes that make no sense to me.I mean i guess they have never heard the saying,"if it aint broke,don't fix it.Things were just fine and didnt need these changes.This picture thing makes me laugh.It's like ebay does'nt want to have any rules they might have to police on there,especially if it takes away from the seller.As ebay is all about the big time sellers,and not the mom and pop sellers like myself that made ebay.Yeah,if i was still on there i would just put my user name on my pictures of my items.But im sure ebay will see people do that and make a rule that you can't do that.And ebay is a total monopoly.Especially when they made that paypal change.The only way you can pay is from a company they own.

Re: Warning: eBay will be using photos without creators' permission
Again I reiterate! Please be sure that if you decide to opt out, go back and make sure that is is confirmed. I was told by eBay that their systems were having troubles with this and they were unsure as to when it will be fixed. Knowing how they love to do what ever they want to us sellers, it would not surprise me in the least if they just magically got them fixed after the 31st.

I was just setting up some items for sale and PayPal is the ONLY form of payment you can request as a Seller - NOT 'one potential form of payment'.
When I went just to REVIEW my post, it's scan engine stopped me because I had the words MONEY ORDER in the body of my Text. It told me that PayPal is the ONLY accepted form of payment now for eBay listings.

P.S. - I also OPTED OUT of the photo sharing thing along with my wife.
