[Leica] Flickr and Photographers

If you have your images set to "all rights reserved," then you don't have a
problem. The issue is that some people never bothered to read the material
about rights, and left things at the default.

I joined Flickr because, in my "youthful" naïveté, I thought that somebody
would see my images and want to buy them or hire me for something. Alas,
that delusion went the way of Santa Claus and the Easter bunny. But it
still is a convenient place to show photos and see how many people look at
them.
