    PJ- Yeah, it says "Photos: John Sullivan", the author of the artice.

    Maybe it is just a mixup. It still sucks, but I don't think I have a leg to stand on. I took the photos on company time, while getting paid by the company, and the article was writting as a favor to us by this person who I'm told is a big shot for such-and-such publications (don't remember the publication's name, whoever produces V-Twin) and if I make a stink out of it, it could be bad for my company as far as getting future articles goes. Nothing is copyrighted either. Anyone read V-Twin magazine? I'll try to get the author's or someone's contact information and write a very polite email.

    Thanks.

    Don't make a stink out of it. Just contact the writer and the magazine, point out the error, and politely request a correction in the next issue. I don't think anyone will be upset. In fact, they'll probably be eager to help. Most people in the publishing business have a lot of respect for copyright issues.

    I use to read V-Twin! I use to subscribe to a couple of biker mags and read them all, cover to cover. I still have them in a box in the basement. Then I got my Harley and I stopped getting them because riding is a lot funner than reading about riding.

    I think the others have given you some good advice. Give them a call and see what they say. If nothing comes of it, at least you tried.
