    Stolen image used on TV..

    Hi all,

    I'm not sure if this is the right forum but here goes.

    If you take notice of this YouTube video from about 2:10 onwards you will see the person using a photo of a Holden LX Torana doing a wheelstand that looks very similar to an image I took

    I'm not sure where I stand on this but shortly after the video was uploaded I filed a copyright complaint to YouTube and it was declined (no reasoning), it only had probably 2-3k views at the time but it now has 5 million (not including the other people who have re-uploaded the video).

    The terms of use are very clear on my website, but even still I hold copyright of all images on the website regardless..

    Pissed that my photos was used for commercial use without permission, but to have YT reject my complaint and I'm sure the person who uploaded the video has made some $$ out of ads.

    What do I do now?
