Hi All,

Inspired by this thread http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055961490

Im just wondering has anyone read the flickr terms and conditions? I must admit I havent err:o, and have noticed that some of my stuff has appeared on other websites most recently on a site called "dailytrends.net", there is a discalimer saying

"©2007-2010 DailyTrends.net. Content provided and © by third parties: Yahoo, Google, Flickr, YouTube, Omigli, Twitter, Answers.com and others".

I havent been contacted at all about the images used and was wondering if by signing up to flickr my images are fair game for dailytrends to use? Ive noticed they use a lot of flickr linked stuff .

My concern is more around pictures I actually care about not the ones that are being used? Should I take my "valued" images off flickr? Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere I did search.

Cheers,
Trev

Probably and aggregator using the flickr api, turn off the api if you don't want your flickr images accessible through it.

Or edit them in Picnik - the onboard Flickr editor, putting in offensive watermarks ontop of them and 'replacing them for original'.

That'd work too!

Hmmm... See what'cha mean now. Maybe if they're personal, just make them viewable to friends & family.

But regarding the legality of it, I'm pretty sure there has to be loopholes somewhere for yahoo etc to use when they want - in return for storing them, etc.
