News Story.

.....somebody might take your pics, sell them and give you nowt! (although they do suggest it's unlikely I'm sure it'll go down like a ton of bricks with the twitter users on here)

I think this probably gets right back to the much-said advice on online image protection: Post low resolution and watermark the ever living @#$% out of whatever you post ... right in the middle or over the main subject, enough to mar the usability of the image for more than a glance.

Granted, it's not advised to destroy the image utterly; it's advised to make it nigh impossible to crop out a watermark (or low opacity text) without destroying the quality of the image. If the image is marked in a good enough place, then any outside publication of the image would have a copyright notice scrawled across the middle of it.

Of course, I also like the idea of having some sort of contact info available in the case that some media outlet may want to use an image (if there's a chance some media outlet may want to use the image).
