we have the rights

these few days, i have been shooting and working on the layouts for the launch this weekend. its nearly 4am now, my shoulders are aching. you know at times like this, i cant help but feel pissed off that some customers used our photos to re-sell KYURII clothes on their personal auctions. we are perfectly ok with them re-selling the items, but we feel they should at least take a little time and re-shoot the clothes, and at least change the typeface or colour of the type of our item description! (even our html is entirely cut and paste). its sad to see our efforts at their disposal. sigh..... i really can't help but feel sad (and angry). after all, its my body and face thats appearing on their auctions. : ( maybe KYURII can start charging them royalty fees. just like how it works in advertising. when we use photos shot by other photographers, we pay royalty fees. and models also charges royalty talent fees when their faces or parts of body appear somewhere else besides the original work. so i should be charging them royalty fees too. sigh.... ok need to get back to the layouts.
Thanks for reading my frustration.

Would like to highlight regard the picture of yours which has been borrowed or took your pictures to their personal auction or links to re-selling items.

You both dont need to be fed up or get angry over this small matter. Not only you only, other sellers do feel this way too.

you both had enough to earn some profits yourselves for those kyurii clothes as you did not hire model to do photo for kyurii.

They (girls) trying to earn money with their own efforts to buy your clothes at highly cost compare to those ones at FEP or Bugis Village or Heeren.

So to be fair to them that they had paid you money much for your clothes at kyurii and sadly they cannot wear it often after worn once. So they only can use your picture to re-sell items at loss price. They are very pity enough more than you okie.

thank you
