I am not sure how US copyright law compares to UK legislation, but this makes interesting reading.

Re: Another Competition Disqualification
Yet another example of copyright breaches, this time by two agencies that really should know better given the business they are in. I can well imagine what would happen if someone made similar unauthorised use of these companies' images. If the damages are not punitive in this instance, copyright becomes worthless.

Re: Another Competition Disqualification
It seems that punitive damages have now been awarded to the photographer whose copyright was breached.
