The Flickr Collection on Getty Images
Interesting post on the Flickr blog yesterday… sounds like they are teaming up with the Getty Images stock photography site to promote Flickr users photos and hopefully make it easier for Flickrites to get there images up on Getty.
Team Flickr has long wanted to create a way to make it easier for those who use photos in the digital publishing industry to do so in a way that respects the talent and rights of our members.
The great folks at Flickr and Getty Images are joining forces to build a platform that will enable the creation of a first class collection of royalty free, rights ready, and rights managed photographs that will debut later this year.
Maybe they can use some more stock golf images? Supposedly coming later this year. Should prove interesting. I sure hope they don’t use the Magic Donkey to determine what is Getty Images worthy!

Sadly, it’s something I really can’t do since a lot of my stuff is shot for my school’s newspaper. It would kind of suck if I had to tell them that they couldn’t print a picture there because it was picked up by a stock agency.
Yeah I’m not really sure how that’s gonna work out… not holding my breath either!
