Hi Curt
I just talked with Tix ( owner of the site ) and he
seemed at dismay. He says that he gets the pictures from
a number of people that send them in. He doesn't
always have the ability to filter out those that have
been lifted from those that are original. Also, in the
past, his site didn't have a place for credits ( I've looked
at his site before ). It seems that he has added this
and I'd suspect that the picture in question may have
been there a long time.
In any case, work with him. If you feel that he needs to
pull the picture, just let him know. His English is a
little rough, being Italian, but he is a good sort.
I think he does a good job overall and I've noticed that
in many places, he does give credits to the various sources.
I think that his intentions are good.

Thanks Sellam...
Yup, just as expected, several photo's taken from my site, old ones
too. Its not the case with this site, but have you ever seen the
sites that take photo's from your own site, then the site that steals
them put's their own watermark on them, that always raises an eyebrow
for the contempt displayed. Well, dispite this 1000bit site
plundering others to generate content to for itself, it is a nice
looking, well setup site.

I didn't see the original msg, whats the URL
for this Vintage Computer
site... I find my images and content from
atarimuseum.com constantly
commandeered by other sites and not so much as a simple text saying
"stolen without permission" ;-)
