Image Sleuth / using other's images as backgrounds and reselling as stock?

« on: May 07, 2010, 10:08 »

I was roaming thru istock this morning and noticed a shot I liked, zoomed in and saw that the background is one of my cityscape images, altered, cloned, etc, but my image nonetheless, and in the foreground is the model....

Is this type of use permissible in stock? I didn't think it was and didn't want to post the images yet for if the photographer is breaking the law, I prefer to do much more than ask them to take them down...

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Forget John and Barak, Vote For Me!
Hi All!

At my girlfriend's prompting, I entered the Nikon d60 Contest.

She entered some really nice shots, better than mine, but as luck would have it, she didn't make it into the finals.... But I did!

And I am asking for votes... I would love to win the camera, but would much rather win the weekend getaway, so I can get away with my Lady!

She is the one that should be the finalist!

Anyway, please vote for my bus image and if you remember, please go back and vote everyday!

If the link doesn't work right, the picture is on page 4, second row, second image.
The picture is of a young lady waiting for the bus in the Harvard Square bus depot.

Thanks to all and I will let you all know if we win!

Vote Early And Vote Often....

To Lucky Oliver
Instead of the current stats boards showing us who is the most talkative and who has the most pictures uploaded, how about showing us what is actually selling?

I believe stats like that would be much more informative.
The entertainment value of the other stats is fine but most of the stats are next to useless, at least for me.
The keyword stats are cool but still they don't show us what your buyers are looking for....

Off Topic / Using Picasa

« on: October 21, 2006, 11:50 »

I recently started using Picasa and was wondering what other folks thought of it.
I seem to be getting a lot of rejections from the sites due to noise and was thinking that maybe when I straighten or do other stuff in Picasa, that the program may be messing with the image and adding noise....any thoughts?
Thanks.
Also, does any one know any good programs for storing and organizing images, similar to Picasa or iPhoto?
