My photo was solved over a million times! Apparently it's a new record, and I have no idea why it is so popular... Look at their FB page (scroll down to their June 6th entry):

Anyways, should I be pissed that someone stole my photo without permission and made a very popular puzzle out of it without tell me, or asking for my permission?

This is the person who posted it:

It looks like the website just accepts pictures that people submit and make a puzzle out of them, so it wasn't the website itself who stole it. She seems like some old lady who doesn't really care where the pictures came from, she just found them and posted it.
Either way the website runs ads and is making money, though probably not a lot. I guess it's up to you if you if you want to make them take it down or not. I'd be a little mad if it was mine, though I know it wasn't done with bad intentions.
