Just compare page 37 of the laservision catalog to a screenshot of the current frontpage of o-like.com

What do you mean cheap? I don't like the Photoshoped beam, it would look much better without it.

Or are you referring to the possibility of O-like using their image without permission?

It's the last. When I visited o-like.com, I was surprised to see laservision goggles on the front page photo, but they don't even sell them.

Maybe they bought those Goggles....:undecided:
Did you want to buy their Front Page or one of their Lasers...:thinking:

Actually, it would be nice if they sold laservision goggles, those a very expensive but absolutely awesome. Copying only the picture is a bit cheap.

Ask Susie if she would sell them....

So the picture copy looks amateur... not the whole front page...
BTW... LaserVision sells LaserVision goggles...
Hey... maybe LaserVision copied O-Likes Photo....:crackup::crackup:

I didn't know about the other threads. But I'm pretty sure nobody saw the picture and thought: Those are laservision goggles! :)

I like the fact that others are not happy with theft of pictures. O-Like should give credit to the actual owner of that photo.

This is not the 1st time O-like has resorted to theft and copyright violation on their website. They had also used stolen images from a factory assembly and promoted them as photos of their factory.
Theft speaks volumes about the moral vaules of a company and how they treat others.

Maybe the photos were chose by the Website builder...
Who may or may not be affiliated with O-Like other than
a Web Builder...:thinking:

We have seen this once before when everyone was blaming
a website owner of "stealing" content/photos when in reality
it was proven that the hired Website Builder was at fault...

I'm just saying without proof anything is possible....:whistle:

I would tend to agree with this logic; rarely does a company design their own website, especially when it's a company that has nothing to do with web services.

Is it wrong? Yeah, but we don't know the whole story, for all we know that's a photo that laservision used, and that O-like paid for the permission to use...Unless someone asks Susie I wouldn't go making accusations of theft on their part.
