Comments on: Flickr: How to get noticed and increase your exposure http://www.svenler.com/blog/flickr-how-to-get-noticed-and-increase-your-exposure/ Tue, 31 Jan 2012 22:34:11 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Andrew Graeme Gould http://www.svenler.com/blog/flickr-how-to-get-noticed-and-increase-your-exposure/comment-page-1/#comment-2482 Andrew Graeme Gould Sat, 01 Jan 2011 18:49:17 +0000 http://www.svenler.com/blog/?p=139#comment-2482 Very well thought out, indeed, making it an encouraging post. As a new Flickr user, I'll be putting that into practice. About Cindy's concern, yes, no matter what you do, there will be those who will steal photos, including using them on their blogs without your permission, even though you may have a restriction clearly stated right next to the photo. It's that, or don't show your work at all. I though about uploading smaller sizes to Flickr, but the problem here is that you can't take full advantage of the full screen slide show. All the best from Santiago... Very well thought out, indeed, making it an encouraging post. As a new Flickr user, I’ll be putting that into practice.

Just a faded logo in the corner of your image, but not somewhere easily cropped out. I'm not a fan of the people who plaster a huge semi-transparent logo over the centre of their image though; I think that is just going too far, and makes it difficult to really see the image and turns me off it.

Isn't that like giving away your work. How do you protect you copyright on Flickr? But can’t people copy and print your photographs? Isn’t that like giving away your work.
