Well this person's name is Troy and goes by 
Ohjiro-San (for some reason I thought this 
person's name was Tiffany and a girl).  Has 
anyone ever heard of this person??

My letter to them:

>Hello,

>I'd like you to know that you are using my Cels 
>and layout sketches in your Production Cel 
>galleries without my permission.  I also know 
>that a lot of the other cel images you have in 
>those galleries are also used without the 
>permission of the cel owner.  Now, the cel owner 
>does own the rights to those images, for they 
>are the ones who has paid money for the cels and 
>put the time and effort into scanning them for 
>display in their own galleries.  And just 
>because a cel image is on the internet, does not 
>give anyone the right to take them from the 
>owner's gallery without their permission.

>I ask that you take down all the cel images.  If 
>you would like to use them in the future, please 
>contact the cel owner to ask for their 
>permission.  Now with my cels, I do not give you 
>permission to display them in the future.  
>Thanks for your cooperation!

>Sarah

Now I think I'm being very polite about the whole 
thing.  Here is what the response is:

>>I am sorry to hear this, but I haven't worked 
>>on the website in about 2 months or so now.  I 
>>stopped the website, and I am not going to 
>>spend my time to take them down because I don't 
>>care about the website anymore.  I am not going 
>>to search for the celluloids in which you own, 
>>and take them down.  The site will be gone 
>>whenever the hosting runs out, and that's when 
>>they will go down.  Also they are pictures.  
>>People are aloud to use them.  If you own 
>>something you don't upload it to the internet 
>>if you don't expect someone to use it.  People 
>>are always looking for images for stuff like 
>>this, and they could care less who paid the 
>>money for it.  It is not like they are taking 
>>the celluloid from you.  If you have such a 
>>problem with it... put text of your images or 
>>don't upload them.  I own celluloids of my own, 
>>and I could care less if someone took the 
>>images because I still have the celluloid, and 
>>all they did was spread the artwork of a great 
>>artist on the internet.  If you are all uptight 
>>about your celluloids, then maybe you shouldn't 
>>put them on the internet, because they will be 
>>taken off of it one way or another.  Doesn't 
>>matter if you put text on them or what.  They 
>>will be edited and put on other websites.  Now 
>>if you would please, I have more important 
>>stuff to do than reply to such a stupid email.

I found his responds very rude.  Am I wrong to 
assume this??
