Not all the Kenshin scans are from dealer's sites.  
Nine of the cels on the second Kenshin page are 
straight from my gallery.  They're very obviously 
my scans--these people couldn't even be bothered to 
crop my dropshadow off the edges of the large 
images.

I've seen a couple cel images of mine turn up in 
"image galleries", and found it mildly annoying, 
but not so annoying that I felt like losing sleep 
over it or defacing my gallery with watermarks.

However, this "Solid Anime" site really makes me 
angry.  Why?  Because this isn't called an "image 
gallery", it's a "cel gallery".  If there is to be 
any point at all in having online cel galleries, 
there must be a presumption that one actually 
_owns_ the cels in one's gallery.  For them to put 
the cels _I_ own in their wretched "gallery" is a 
challenge to my ownership.  While they do not 
specifically say "we own all these cels", neither 
do most real galleries.

This kind of thing just does _not_ motivate me to 
finish putting up my gallery.  >_<
