Good for you! We need to somehow shake up the community to see the problem we have on here with image plagiarism and copyright infringement. I hope you reported every one of them to Steemcleaners! I am behind you all the way. there are instances when people really don't know they are doing wrong, but for a contest??
I have not yet reported them to steemcleaners, I will look into how to do that
Very easy. File here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScCZuBdZmqg4FcOWcpF_nfvZ0_6rQbZJfnbUJjtglepuwcAhQ/viewform
I just wrote a blog post on Image plagiarism if you are interested. I would love to see photographers unified on this issue! It's a HUGE problem on here, and not just for contests. People want eye candy for free in order to line their own pockets.
