..... I strongly suggest you remove the image.
Using your rationale it would be OK for say CNN to use anyones image from here or a.net by simply including the copyright bar, and that would be OK would it?
You clearly know nothing about copyright.

I don't recall asking for opinions on ATI business practice or policy, if you could point me to where you found that, please let me know.
I am hardly asking to change the site, all I asked for was for those that want to, they be allowed to watermark their images. Why is it so difficult for you to grasp that choice is a good thing?
If you don't want to view any images that are watermarked, be my guest. The other alternative is that they never get seen at all. Most rational thinking people would suggest that viewing a watermarked picture that may be of interest is better than not seeing it at all.

You wanted an opinion on it. So I gave one.
Steve, I respectfully disagree, he does not have permission from the photographer to re-post the photo here, and is in violation of ATI terms and conditions, simply including the copyright bar is irrelevant.

I do not take photo's for money. If I have some extra time and happened to be at the local airport and have my camera I might snap off a couple but I make zero dollars off these photo's. Could I make money off photo, I guess if I tried, but call it lack of motivation or whatever I just don't really care to.
