Revenge is called for, they've used your pictures directly from your web 
page:

http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/photo_1.jif
and
http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/photo_2.jif

quite simply all you've got to do is find a couple of suitable pictures, 
ones that won't get you in trouble, and substitute them for images 
they've used, find something that is completely opposite to what they've 
used, the thing with the auctions on eBay is that they stay there for a 
couple of months, rather than just renaming the picture, make them suffer 
somehow.  All you'd need to do then is change your relevent webpage URLS 
withing your HTML for the renamed pictures.  Pick something really 
embarressing and let us all know when it's done, I'd love to see what you 
could come up with.
