Send them an email telling them that those images are copyrighted by you and
they need to take them down or credit you.

Are the hot linking the images or did they just save the image and post to
their site? If they are hot linking the image you can run a script to block
right click, but that can be gotten around too. If it's hot linked I'd
change it with the most disgusting picture I could find. As far as making
them take it down... sorry can't help there.
