I have an interesting dilemma that I haven't done anything about yet.
A couple years ago some people in the next little town bought some computer sign equipment. Well, you all know what their stuff looks like you all have the same people in your neighborhoods. I'll give them credit they are getting better and also pretty ambitious. Anyway here is the problem.... they advertise with a web page, (I don't have a Web page) so from time to time I look at it and ... there is example after example of my work, MY WORK. This is by adding to jobs that I have done one is a big racing snowmobile trailer with sponsors all over it and they have added a sponsor but all the others that I did are in the photo. This is a repeated technique used by them. Another example is a digital print of some brush work that I did and they have applied to a truck for the same client I originally did. No credit of course but the implication is that it is theirs.
Any feed back or advice before I do something from my biker past.

P.S. Our new motto "We don't make all the signs, just the best ones."

You must confront these folks. It's on your energy that they will benefit, and against themselves, that they MISREPRESENT what their business is.

They should AT LEAST give you credit ON THEIR WEB SITE for the work previously done.
