I haven’t used this app, so I don’t have first-hand knowledge of it. How does it steal the images? It sounded like it was just another way to view what’s on the Website–another way to slice the content. If that’s not what it is, how does it work?

This company and any others like it are stealing our images. We put them up for other photographers to comment and learn from. This is the kind of thing I have feared would come. Someone showing everyone that it is OK to steal our images just because we post them for others to see and learn from and communicate in a Pro/Amateur environment. This will be the key that opens the door to theft.
