I wouldn't remove the people who are your fans. Copy the list to a work file - print it even - then you can put a mark next to the genuine fans, and another mark next to the suspect ones.
You could use your positive comments on your pictures to identify your genuine fans. Post some gratuitous slashy images and those of us who enjoy them will be all over the comments like a rash.
There's also at least two people who have posted comments on your main page saying that you shouldn't be posting this stuff, remove them from the list immediately if they're watching you.
anniefelis: the bitch I had the argument with when you were going to leave is called, so if she's on there, get rid of her. Ammotu: is another one.
For the remainder, you could have a quick look at their favourites. If they have screencaps in their favourites then it's not likely to be them.
That will just leave you with the watchers who've never favourites a screen-cap and never posted a positive comment on your page. I would feel reasonably confident about deleting those.
If you want to spend the time over it, but I think it would be work it. Then you can keep an eye out, and if another of your screencaps gets reported and one of those suspect names is on your watchers again, you've probably found the culprit.
It just gets my goat because I'm all for free speech and freedom of information.
But don't get too hung up about it! I think your whole fan base is also following on Live Journal! And I know I'm stil very much enjoying your work.

Sorry, some of that was a little incoherent, the grammar was awful. I'm 12 hours post spinal surgery and stoned on morphine. Probably shouldn't be allowed near the net yet but the hospital has WiFi! :) It'a keeping me entertained, when I'm not asleep.
