If it were my pic, and I was dead set on retaining the rights to it, I would tell Tony, "Go ahead and keep it up, just add attribution and a copyright notice".
Heck, free advertising is free advertising! |
I wonder what would happen if a dwellar posted it on, say WTF?
|
National Geographic called: they said the picture isn't really that good. Can we put it back up now? :right:
|
"We don't need no stinking badges!"

Be fair, the Google advertising on the IotD might make 50 cents from a day's shot. Pro photographers will lament the loss of that income.
(Flickr is a Yahoo! property, Yahoo! had $6.7B in revenues in 2007.) |
Let it go... he asked for it to be taken down, it was. Nothing to see here. Move along.
|

<moving on> |

If you click on the Flickr link and then this photographer's profile -- it shows that he/she is from South Florida. This person has some other great shots too. Check out Duck Pins. |
Guess the thread title should change to "Imagine of the Day". ;)
It is nice to see the matter handled civilly and promptly, but it is a loss for the many anonymous readers of this forum. Only 9 more hours until tomorrow's IotD, though! |
One of those anonymous readers dropped a dime and got it yanked.

better than dropping the soap and getting :eek:'d

I use a lot of pics from Flickr, but I don't use the "all rights reserved" ones. You just have to look and see if there's a common use license.

Note.
Tony, you really did handle that well. You are , indeed a GREAT person. I've always admired you for online demeanor. Long live Undertoad. ...and now back to your regularly scheduled programming.... |

When people start clicking on that link it shows up as traffic from the Cellar so they come and see why. Unfortunately I didn't get up in time to move the link to the first post which may have placated pinoyphotog. But that's life. Besides, it's all Aliantha's fault for putting a post in between the link and the picture. :lol2: |
