Due to some webmasters (*) that have appropriated 17Buddies's work, and have stolen all our screens for their website without authorization, nor even installing a link or a 17b button on their website, we were forced to install a watermark on all our screens (automatic work still in progress for our 73000+ screens).
I don't really like watermarks, and so, I tried to make them as less visible as possible...
I think I found a good compromise.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Chapo
(*): I encourage you to boycott and to tell all your contacts that this website http://cs-hlds.ru is a thief. If you look at his http://cs-hlds.ru/load/karty_maps_mapy_dlja_cs_1_6/208, you should note that he has just leeched all of our screens and replaced our logo with his ugly one. He is so dumb that some screens still have the 17b logo...In principle it does not really bother me (but still a bit) as long as it clearly indicates the origin of screens. When I asked http://www.17buddies.net/17b2/View/User/19745/x/index.html (webmaster of this site) to install a button with a link to 17b he just answer me "kiss my ass" and "I give you 50 cents for your work". This is how this spotty kid reward your work, all of you that have spent time to upload maps and screens on our site.

Pour ceux qui veulent y aller ^^
Pour info, un trojan est détecté de temps en temps sur ce site
The callousness of some still amazes me... Russians are well known for this kind of work, so nothing unusual there. Chapo is good to see you kept the matters in your hand and protect our work. Thank you.
Do not generalize: we fortunately have many of honest and kindly russians members
I didn't say ALL Russians
I know but I wanted to clarify this point
