A photograph is copyrighted at the moment you take it. There is nothing else you have to do. You can write “copyright 2007 you name” on it but that isn’t required.

Some of your answerers seem to be “stressed” approximately copyright. Yes, this is a reproduction or a spinoff paintings of the normal copyrighted paintings, and for that reason an infringement until you will have an exemption of a few style. As for “industrial use”, if it is a willful infringement for “industrial knowledge or individual monetary obtain”, then it’s ALSO a federal crime (moreover to being sued for as much as $one hundred fifty,000 damages).

CoachT is right.

Once you create a work it is automatically copyrighted. There are no forms to fill out in order to be considered legally protected.

Are these girls over 18? If they aren’t then you have even less legal recourse against them.

You could, ahem, “inform” them that if they continue you are going to expose them for the fakers (poseurs, wannabes, etc) that they are. I would think that may work, but if not you are really only left with legal action which is expensive, time consuming, and may not actually be effective if they are minors.

Sorry, wish I had better news. I recommed that you expose them for who they are, but no name calling or anything other than the truth.
