They might even know this, therefore - as usual on websites like that - they haven't published any imprint. Hence, the statement above doesn't protect the website owners from any legal action taken against them. Unfortunately that's not how things are meant to work.

I rather upload full res photos because one of my hard drives packed in a decade back and I lost a bulk of my photos, but they were still on Flickr which was good, I was able to retrieve them all again. Flickr got back and told me to go to them, which I've done but I'm expecting a polite F off or being ignored completely. That didn't work unfortunately, the photos are still on the site. Thats about all you can to prevent them, as for downloading images on flickr, it always been an unresolved issue.ĭon’t upload full res pictures, so they’ll only get max what you upload! You can go in your settings, privacy and permission, hide your stuff from public search : yes, on 3rd party sites. That won’t be troubling me then! □Īs a Software Engineer I would guess they're using the API, and some kind of hack where you can get full res images from accounts that have downloading disabled, "dl.php" does all the work. It’s not very good imo.īetter that members can see what the subject is IMOįair point. A strongly worded communication from Flickr lawyers might be in order methinks.Īnd I wouldn’t give the site the oxygen of publicity.

Stewart Fullerton Photography edited this topic 23 months ago.Īn excellent website, thanks for posting the link I have reported this matter to Flickr, but just to make everyone aware of this. This surely has to be a breach of the Flickr terms and conditions, and I'm not too pleased that my work is being made downloadable on this site. I have disabled the ability for anyone to download full res versions of my pictures, but this new website gets around that rule, this doesn't just affect me, it affects every other Flickr user that has downloading disabled, your work can be downloaded by anyone even if you have downloading turned off. It has recently come to my attention that a new photo search engine website was launched, but the thing I find concerning is that even though you have downloading disabled, this site allows any user to download your work, full resolution photographs.
