pan0.net controversy   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #30606 of 34338 |
There has been some recent discussion on the Flickr Equirectangular group about
pan0.net taking copyrighted photos from members and posting them on their site
without the correct attribution. The discussion can be seen here:

http://www.flickr.com/groups/equirectangular/discuss/72157620918068114/


The Flickr Equirectangular group welcomes comments from everyone in the pano
community. As the administrator for the Flickr group I felt it was my job to
cross post the information here as it may be of interest to this group also.
