one thing that isn't viewable to regular members is the IP address. it is logged on each post in the forum and comment in the galleries. a person can prove in US courts who they are from an IP address. so since the IP addresses are logged on this site, and I would assume 90% of sites out there when you make a post if it came down to a court case of someone stealing work and making money from it and you wanted to sue you could prove who you were from that IP address. And most sites would co-operate with a member to provide him with this information. I know if a member of HM asked me to send him the IP addresses he had logged in our site I would screen cap it for them.

Plus as the creator of the work you would probably have the files to support your creation, such as saved works in progess, the actual orignal non-jpg render. pz3 scene save files, layered psd files, the program that can make the image, the products used to make the image, any textures created by yourself in the image. This can also be used to assit in proving your ownership of said image.
