Question Image use question

Question concerning something happening on another (less well moderated!) site that Mrs ES frequents.

Photograph of somebody taken and placed on forum. Person complains that they do not want this photo on forum, especially where photo appears in subsequent thread. As a complication, photo sometimes photoshopped in a derogatory manner. Is an offence or actionable tort (UK law) being committed or is it, as I suspect, tough luck? Or rather, my best guess is that tough luck with regard to the original, although one might be able to pursue the photoshoppers, except that would be such a hydra headed exercise only an obsessive would bother.
