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:

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.

Pie 04-28-2009 12:27 PM

I didn't actually see the picture on Flickr, I saw it on another site (that I lost the link to :smack:), that said it came from Flickr. On tsibley's Flickr link the name of the photographer is pinoyphotog, which makes me believe it's probably the Philippines or S.E. Asia. That would fit the architecture too.


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.

Don't knock it 'til you've tried it.

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.

capnhowdy 04-28-2009 07:11 PM

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....

Not really, he contributed to the post by providing the link... that's a good thing and I appreciate that.
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:
