I think I FINALLY found the java script to keep people from stealing my images on Ebay! Now, I have a new problem....how do I add it to my auctions when I am listing through Auctionwatch? There is a person that is making a full time job out of stealing my images....and Ebay won't do a THING. Please help me. Thanks!

francie,
I responded to you in the Moderator's Corner. By the way, all one needs to do is disable java on their computer and that java code is useless... just so you know it's not 100%

Francie, eBay has a Verified Rights Owner (VeRO) program in place to handle this kind of problem. eBay's rules specifically prohibit stealing another person's images (See SafeHarbor/Copyrights).
I don't have the link to VeRO in front of me but maybe you can find it or someone will post it here. Once you are a VeRO member, all you have to do is send them an email and they will shut down the offending auction, usually within a few hours. I have done it several times when other eBay sellers stole my description.
