If he had shown my work as an original and cited me as the source then there wouldn't be any problem under fair use but again he didn't follow the proper channels to do what he did.
As has been pointed out already, this is a completley wrong interpretation of fair use. That being said, it would be fair use to use an image to critique the image, or possibly the techniques used to create it. Using them for what ammounts to a product comparison just counts as being lazy and stealing your work.

You have to send me the image, my client renders it. That means I have the image.
I could also just clear my cache, load the page, and then browse all the image files in my cache.
With flash there's screen capture.
In the end, if you send me the bits to display on a screen (within a framebuffer), I can get those bits back out. It's just a question of how hard I have to work to do it. Once someone does the hard work once, it's fairly trivial to automate most things.
