A question about Getty Images partnering with Flickr
I apologize for the image but I'm on an old computer at a family member's house in Virginia. Microsoft Paint brings back lots of memories. Anyway...
Have you been contacted by Getty Images? They have officially partnered with Flickr, and it's in beta stage. I received this e-mail:
"Hi Brian Hathcock,
Flickr has partnered with the fabulous Getty Images to offer an invitation-only service for Flickr members to sell their photos for commercial use.
The Getty Images team has noticed your work on Flickr, and is pleased to offer you an invitation to enroll with them. They have selected 18 of your photos for possible inclusion in the program."
And so forth.
Here is a link to the group for Getty Image contributors:
flickr.com/groups/gettyimagescontributors/
My question for those in the know is simply, What do you think of this?
Would you (or are you) going to do it?
Any discussion and thoughts in my comments are very welcome.
