Yes this,and what H mentions is correct.

I've had a little experience in these areas,I have taken
a few images in the last year that have used in many
publications etc.Some people tried to steal them and claim
them as their's.But soon got found out.

One thing I do,if I have taken a good image-and think it
might be a valuable one,is post it on IIS or similar image
section-that way-as it becomes more in vogue and used
by advertising agencies around the world.If some one needs
verfiy you took it-trhey can follow the web to where it all began.

Also,if I'm in a shoot and the images are likely to go somewhere
I'll take some 'insitu' images-even crappy ones will look good to buyers.

Cheers Chris
