This makes me laugh and I question how much she really knows about tomatoes:
"Ever grow Cherry Tomatoes? These smaller bush type plants..." Her website is pretty amateurish, IMO. Bad clipart and animated gifs (what is this 1995?) The whole thing comes across like a late night infomercial. |

I apologize for the comment - it was not necessary.
I do think they should be able to post here, if only to try defend themselves. I would love to see how that goes. Otherwise, it would be wise to delete the thread, as it's only creating more bad feelings. |

They have stolen one of my photos that's now posted on their facebook page.
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?p...d=204328085055 It's not "sleeping beauty" it's something else. I bet they'd like to know! Edit: folks as mad as I am, they're not worth it. I learned my lesson and will water-mark everything. Last edited by surf4grrl; November 30, 2012 at 12:08 PM. |

If someone wasn't upset about their pics being used without permission on their catalog, they may want to re-think that now that they've been put up on Facebook. Facebook's policy is that every photo uploaded onto their site is at that point Facebook's property. That puts a whole new spin on this.

Interesting post on their FB page.
"Our new line of Dwarf tomatoes that are coming soon are Guaranteed to germinate. Here's Penny with her Dwarf Tomato seedlings at 100% Germination. The minute these seedlings emerge you instantly notice they are different...thicker stems and a dark green potato like foliage." |

About your picture she says:
"Joyce, YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY WRONG. What site was it posted at?? I have the exclusive rights to that picture. I have the documentation for that. So the website you are talking about must have stolen it from us. AGAIN, what website is it on??? My guess is you're a member of TomatoVille, the Tomato Nazi's???" Quote:

I took that picture 3 years ago and have proof - I use a phototrackig program my webmaster installed to find out where the photos are... So no, she's definitely lying. Let's see her proof, because I just sent my lawyer mine!

Bingo. You try to protect your property rights, and next thing you know; 'Nazi'.

Please people, this thread does nothing to embrace our shared love of growing tomatoes - it is neither constructive nor positive. Before we are hoisted by our own petards, let's kill this thread and move on... Thanks, Steve |
