Someone used a pic of my car
someone stole a picture of my car to use on their ebay auction for mesh material. I don't know weather to be upset that they used my pic without asking, or be happy that I did a good job on my grill and they wanted to use it to sell their product

Someone 'borrowed' a pic of my car before also but they linked it directly off my server when they did it. I noticed it in the URL logs. I replaced the picture of my car with a VERY obscene picture and gave the new picture the same name as the one they were linked to. It stayed on their site for about three days until they finally noticed it. It was some personal site about his friends, family, hobbies, etc.. It was good for a laugh.

Huh?!?
You're as eBay paranoid as a lot of my friends. Well, just losing money I say. (And I'm not really talking about for car parts..... CD's, cameras, computer stuff, electronics)

mesh
I paid $40 for it at pepboys (made by APC). That was before I had a computer and knew about ebay (yeah, I got ripped pretty bad). His picture of mesh looks identical to the stuff I bought, and his is a bigger piece! But I actually took off the black plastic honeycomb and hollowed out the shell, rather than laying the mesh over the honeycomb. It took like 10 hours total, but well worth the time.
