What do you guys think?
Dear Canuck Audio Mart:
It has come to my attention that two users on record going by the alias of "srock_00" (
http://www.canuckaudiomart.com/userprofile.php?user_id=8096 ) and "hungtoronto" (
http://www.canuckaudiomart.com/userprofile.php?user_id=11285 ) which will now from herein be referred to as "parties", have made an unauthorized use of my copyrighted work entitled [DSCF0078.jpg, DSCF0086.jpg, DSCF0087.jpg, DSCF0089.jpg, DSCF0093.jpg] (the "Work") [working reference:

http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g297/yettitheman/HT/DSCF0093.jpg)] in the preparation of a work derived therefrom.
I have reserved all rights in the Work, first published in [July 30, 2007], [pursuant of Copyright Law of the United States of America and Related Laws Contained in Title 17 of the United States Code, Circular 92 ]. Said parties work entitled [

http://www.canuckaudiomart.com/image.php?image=820832&is_user=0 ]is essentially identical to the Work and clearly used the Work as its basis.
[Party alias "hungtoronto" directly copied and pasted onto the site, my original work, as all details of my originals stay perfectly intact, save for a resize of the images and a lower right image added by the website. Party alias "srock_00" took into consideration consequences of violating copyright law and willingly and knowingly modified DSCF0078.jpg and DSCF0089.jpg into images
http://www.canuckaudiomart.com/image.php?image=747479&is_user=0 and
http://www.canuckaudiomart.com/image.php?image=747472&is_user=0 , respectively. The power cord on all forged images is clearly bent and in the exact same location as my original works. The scratch on my original work DSCF0078.jpg, is the same as
http://www.canuckaudiomart.com/image.php?image=747479&is_user=0 , scratch being withheld above Tape 2 Monitor. Original work DSCF0089.jpg, has been knowingly forged with
http://www.canuckaudiomart.com/image.php?image=747472&is_user=0, as by removing the serial number off the back of the unit pictured. Also, as you can see in my original work, a 4 pin Molex (copyright reserved) power connector, and a small purple box containing Cooler Master (copyright reserved) fans. On the forged images, they are chopped off, but barely visible.]
As parties neither asked for nor received permission to use the Work as the basis for [

http://www.canuckaudiomart.com/image.php?image=820832&is_user=0 ] nor to make or distribute copies, including electronic copies, of same, I believe said parties have willfully infringed my rights under 17 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq. as well as violation of section 506 (a)(1)(A), and could be liable for statutory damages as high as $150,000 as set forth in Section 504(c)(2) therein.
I demand that your site immediately cease the use and distribution of all infringing works derived from the Work, and all copies, including electronic copies, of same, that you deliver to me, if applicable, all unused, undistributed copies of same, or destroy such copies immediately and that you desist from this or any other infringement of my rights in the future. If I have not received an affirmative response from you by [Friday, March 13, 2009] indicating that you have fully complied with these requirements, I shall take further action against you.
Very truly yours,
