 Interesting Stormtrooper pics/Yahoo fiasco So it must be a slow news day on Yahoo because I saw this today: http://games.yahoo.com/photos/adorable- ... slideshow/Intrigued I went to the flick users page, the pics were cool: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kalexanderson/Intrigued even more I went to the flickr users blog (where she tells how Yahoo games stole her pics): http://www.kristinaalexanderson.se/Pretty sneaky Yahoo! Yahoo owns Flickr though right? I mean can they bypass Creative Commons because they own both? Hmmmmm

Re: Interesting Stormtrooper pics/Yahoo fiasco I saw those as well. Pretty interesting how they ended up just using the photos.

Re: Interesting Stormtrooper pics/Yahoo fiasco I posted one of these in the Lego thread but I got in on FB with no credit being given. Glad to know the origin and it sucks She doesn't seem to be getting proper credit. Great photos!

Re: Interesting Stormtrooper pics/Yahoo fiasco Her name does appear on that Yahoo! page...but according to her blog, she didn't give them permission to use the images. Actually, after reading a bit more, she says that she never responded to Yahoo!'s email regarding them using the pics. Yahoo! should have never posted the pics, and she should have responded to that email stating whether or not she would allow them.
