			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!

			National Geographic called: they said the picture isn't really that good. Can we put it back up now?

			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.) |

 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!

			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.

			 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.
