The effort that Charles has made to provide a very comprehensive visual guide to casino stuff should be supported, not nit picked on proprietary rights to the content. The benefit the hobby will receive from this resource will far outweigh any loss to an individual because his submission is "misused".

Anything I submit to The Chip Guide can be used by anyone for any reason. The polite thing to do is to give credit to the originator of the image, but courtesy shouldn't be mandated .

If you are running a business of selling scans of your chips, maybe you should put a copyright symbol on them as it would affect your business if someone used the scan for free. For hobby use of scans or photos posted on the web, or in an auction, I don't think there should be any controls imposed.
