Image stolen–anyone read Chinese?

Well, in browsing my site meter today I discovered something potentially disturbing: MY postcard, the springy flowers one on a Chinese website! The good news is that it DOES show a link to my site, but the fact is they didn’t contact me for permission to copy the image or blog about it. I have asked them to remove it from their site (after random clicking on hotlinks in Chinese script I came across one in Roman letters that said “about Baidu” and that had a contact page).

Does anyone out there read Chinese? If so, would you be willing to go to this link and tell me what it says? If it were someone else’s blog, I wouldn’t be concerned, but there is so much theft of artwork and it appears to be a company website. Fascinating….it is a company that is traded on the Nasdaq, and seems to be about internet services. Anyway, IF they are simply showing that they can provide services, then I’m OK with them placing the picture (free advertising? in Beijing?), but it does concern me. Thanks!

    The Chinese writing before your link reads: Please click on the picture to visit source
