I'm an amateur photographer that's just getting back into the art again and I have a question. Granted, I'm not a pro, but I'm still pretty proud of the shots that I think are "good." I shot a rally race last year and posted my pics on the rally website and saw that some of my shots were used by teams that competed and they gave photo credit to me. Eventually, one of my shots made it's way to a very popular Volkswagen website and I saw that they had put their name on the photo.
Long story short, as an amateur, should I put my name on my pics that I post on the web or not? I'm not getting money for my shots, yet I'm still proud of the ones I like. Advice?
