So, I've seen some pictures (movie posters, ads, etc) posted by 365'ers that aren't they're work. Just wondering, what should I do if I see more? I don't want to be rude, but at the same times I know that posting someone else's work isn't right.
I know my granddaughter posted a few a couple of months ago, she is 9, and I had to explain the "rules" to her, once that was done, we removed the ones she did not take herself and she has only posted her own. Is the person a child? if so they may not know the rules. If it is an adult? can't help you there. They should know better.
photographing movie posters is no big deal. its no different than photographing a mural on a wall, or graffiti. Photographing ads is really no big deal either, its no different than photographing an antique/vintage sign which happens to advertise, say, Coca-cola, or photographing a Mail Pouch barn.
That said, if the person posting is trying to CLAIM the subject of their photo was THEIR work, that's another story.
@cheribug@jsw0109 Thanks for your feedback :) What I meant by movie posters (and I should have been clearer...) is that they don't look like pictures that someone took outside of a theater, but a digital file of some kind. They weren't all that clear and didn't look like they were taken by a camera.
Once someone posted one of my images, but it was soley for discussion so she could edit it, then show me how she did it. In the description below the two photos (original and her edit) it specifically said that she did not take the photograph.
I guess we should just report it? I don't know if that option is there. They should have one because 365 is for posting your OWN work & showing it off to the public. But we could just ignore it because obviously it isn't there picture and they know it. If it isn't a profile picture and they post as a 365 , and claim it as there own, Don't comment saying it isn't there's. We all I guess should just report it or simply ignore it. Because we know its not there's. We just simply shouldn't give it power or anything un-needed what so ever. I've seen this here before and I was not a happy camper about it.
usually we only really start a war about it if its a successful photo. If you find a photo of Cheryl Cole walking down the street with no makeup on, and in the corner you can see the end of a letter where it was cut out of a magazine, and some 13 year old has written, I took this today, wow I saw Cheryl Cole, except every word is spelt wrong, they have no followers, post a picture every two months and have 6 views and no comments, and its not even a good scan then, well, meh. If it hits the pp and you feel like you saw it elsewhere then get on that shit and we 'virtually' lynch them and string them up.
@chewyteeth just so's you know, i had to google to find out who Cheryl Cole is... and i've never heard of Girls Aloud either... now i'm wondering - does this speak to my age or the fact that i am totally disconnected from the world of television?
@andycoleborn@charli321 dare i look on youtube? just to experience the horror first hand? or am i better to leave well enough alone and remain blissfully ignorant? ;p
