So instead of being flattered that other people would find your images interesting enough to tell other people 'here, look at this image, it's nice!', you get mad? -Marco Wessel

-- What's feels strange to me is that so many people think it is obvious that the photos will be used in blogs even though the photographer says that she/he doesn't want it. So strange. -m0nni ---
Flickr was built around the idea of a Photo Sharing community and "blog this" is a natural extension of that. -heather *staff* yes I think so.

I just took a screen shot of my screen and it is now on my blog.I can download most images from the web, and for any facility blocking downloading, I can screenshot anything on the screen.So really there is no way to stop anyone to post anything visible on the screen to any blog...And really just like the RIAA and MPAA, as people constantly try to prevent "fair trade, usage of copyrighted material" only bothers honest people engaged in the rich discussion that expands/creates culture and obstructs the breath of out of creativity and art. ..Maybe one feature Flickr could add is a watermarking facility if this is not already present. ..One last thing, is there a way for an author/photographer to know who has used their image in a blog? -Seabasstin

I don't like the idea about watermarks but it would be nice to be noted when a picture is used. It would be an interesting way to "find" new blogs and people. ah that's the spirit. And if there's some discussion about the photo in the blog that would make it even more interesting to see :) m0nni
