Serious question: if you didn't take those pics (I'm just assuming so) and thus you don't have the rights to them since it isn't your intellectual property - wouldn't it be a bad idea then to plaster a TS banner on them?
Not trying to stir up anything here, just wondering.

I am not sure about the copyright issue on pictures unless you are taking out someone else's copyright or watermark and covering it with you own......
For Example on some websites if you upload you picture using there photo gallery it watermarks all your pics w/o giving you the option...

Funny how the new rear bumper has hints of the techart rear valace for the 997....the new 997GT2 wing remind me a tad of the old Gemballa 996TT wing.......it's like Porsche is really taking cues from the tuners eh?

Copyright Issues
From the moment you press the shutter button and the camera goes "click" you own that image. It doesn't matter who's camera that is, where the moon is at that current time, or the price of tea in China. It is your image. There is one, and only ONE exception to that rule. If you work for anyone as a photographer...meaning, you get a paycheck every week for being a photographer, every shot you take while "on the clock" belongs to your employer. Thats it. When you are "selling a photo" you are NOT selling the photo. You are selling USAGE RIGHTS. You still own the photo, and they have no legal right to use the photo in anyway that was not previously agreed upon. There are instances, where someone will want to buy the COPYRIGHT from you. That means, if you sell it, you no longer have any say about the photo, or what it will be used for, nor are you entitled to any money the photo generates from there on in. People will ask you to sell the copyright often, but I suggest that 99.9% of the time, you don't do it, and if you do, multiply your price by 10. People who want the copyright have a serious agenda, and they will probably be making money due to your photo...if they are getting theirs, get yours.
Also, please remember, that unless you sell your copyright, the client has absolutely no right to edit your photo. Never sell RAWs. They probably don't want your signature/copyright graphic on it, and thats fine, but they still have no right to edit.
While a sale of the photo obviously isn't the case here, some might still argue the photo is unlawfully used for promotional means by TS because of the banner. It could be interpreted as TS claiming copyright IMO. Again, just curious and not accusing anyone of any wrong doing.
