Here’s an example:

When copying there’s no alert or notification that perhaps you should check to see if you’re allowed by copyright laws to use it or anything.

Would there be a means I could do that easily or a preferred contact method?

Thanks for sharing this and for taking the time to create such a comprehensive video. It is pretty shocking that a large company like Photobucket wouldn’t have thought about the potential issues (not to mention the fact that some of the images appeared to be copyright). I’m going to post your video over on the Photrade blog.

Also – thanks for mentioning photrade. We are trying to create a site that respects the wishes of the photographers to keep their photos safe.

- Krista
