<p>I would have to say that Annie Leibovitz is certainly taking personal responsibility, thusly she is morgaging her own work.<br>
I am arguing that she should not have had to.</p>
-
<p>I have noticed the platform of change the law or deal with it a lot in this thread.<br>
- people are trying very hard to change it all over the country. These things do not happen swiftly. It's like telling an African American in 1925, "if you don't like the law, do something about it or just learn to live with it and stop complaining."<br>
- Blaming the lack of financial planning of her partner on Annie Leibovitz is somewhat unfair. She is dealing with the hand she was left with. So if we are going to linger on what Annie and Susan SHOULD have done, then it is fair to linger on what the American people/courts/government SHOULD have done about granting people with equal human rights.</p>

<p>Wow, all of the above. I am sort of trying to branch out into Sports photography and am sort of a content sponge at the moment.</p>

<p>"However, I find it hard to understand how inheriting half of an estate has made her poorer."<br>
- Because not everything in an estate produces money (such as property, especally property obtained in 2004 and held onto in the current market). But everything in an estate costs money; (in this case, property tax, estate tax, etc.). She might have done what she could to hold onto these things for a number of reasons. This is not simply a financial situation, it is an emotional one as well. To her, these things are obviously worth morgaging her work for. The point is that it is not fair that she should have to, while heterosexual couples will never even have to think about it.</p>

<p>I am not sure, but I would love to know as well.</p>

<p>It may be a little time consuming but why doing you look up photographers that you like or have similar work to what you are going for and then contact them?</p>

<p>What are some of the best sites for sports photography?</p>

<p>Does Flickr do this kind of thing a lot. i have never really used the site?</p>
-
<p>Thankfully, i live in New York. And yes there are a lot of theme around here. I feel bad for other places that have less access to the art photo world.<br>
Also, I would just really like to see photography get the recognition that it deserves.</p>

<p>Here is another of these because as platform content providers<br /> become more embedded in our conception of service ubiquity,<br /> account takedowns are going to have become more ajudicated.<br /> a popular flickr photographer is gone, just / like / that.<br /> <br /> <a title="blocked::http://thomashawk.com/2009/01/how-would-you-feel-if-your-flickr-account-were-permanently-deleted.html" href="http://thomashawk.com/2009/01/how-would-you-feel-if-your-flickr-account-were-permanently-deleted.html" target="_blank" title="blocked::http://thomashawk.com/2009/01/how-would-you-feel-if-your-flickr-account-were-permanently-deleted.html">http://thomashawk.com/2009/01/how-would-you-feel-if-your-flickr-account-were-permanently-deleted.html</a> <br /> <br /> "One of the things that continuously pisses me off to no end is<br /> how capriciously and callously Flickr goes about deleting<br /> accounts with no warning. The latest example comes from Flickr<br /> user Shéhérazade. After paying for a Flickr Pro account and<br /> uploading photos to a stream on Flickr that had been visited<br /> over 150,000 times, Shéhérazade found that one day her account<br /> was in her words, "deleted without any reason or warning."<br /> According to Shéhérazade, when she tried to contact Flickr<br /> about the problem, "Terrence" from the Flickr Censorship<br /> Bureau (FCB) told her that her account had been deleted<br /> because it included photos that had not been taken by her.<br /> <br /> "Although at first Shéhérazade had said that all of the photos<br /> in her stream were taken by her, she later admitted that 10 of<br /> the photos in her stream were not taken by her. But it turns<br /> out that, according to Shéhérazade, those 10 photos were<br /> actually of her from a model session that she participated in<br /> and she claimed that she had rights to them as the model being<br /> photographed. Now apart from whether or not Shéhérazade<br /> actually has legal rights to those photos, what pisses me off<br /> here is just that Flickr without warning continues deleting<br /> user accounts.

Bernhardt, please explain yourself.
Because by crap I mean the flood of unspecified or poorly tagged content that one gets when relying on a search engine.
If my statement was perceived as an insult, then I am afraid that you sorely misinterpreted me.
-
I know that I am being vague. I have done photography for a very long time and I am just now taking it to the web. I want to know some of the best sites for all of the above. i am creating a bookmark folder to reference as need it and as I go along.
-
What are some of the best photo websites out there? Other than here of course. I am tired of sifting through crap.
-
crap, that is good to know thanks.
I have sold two photos so far with them. Not much in the grand scheme of things. The pics usually sell from anywhere from $50-100 on average and you get 50% of whatever it sells for. Not the best rate out there, but really good for someone who isn't exactly a pro.
Besides you don't have to pay for the membership, you get to upload 12 images for free. My experience with them has been good so far, mind you I have only been on the site for a couple of months.

I am not trying to plug or anything, I just kind of wanted to pass opportunity info along. One of the sites that
I use called fotoLibra.com (it's based in the UK) has been posting a lot of photo calls lately for some pretty
random stuff. If anyone is interested in submitting your stuff for profit, go check it out. I hope the tip is
useful.

I am looking for some type of layer or filter or something to give the effect of the edges around photo from a
negative. I always loved them when I used to do them in a darkroom and I miss them now that I have gone digital.
I do not have a scanner and I want something bigger than 4X6 that I can get from a generic image search over
google. Suggestions?

I have never even seen someone use a wooden tripod.
-
you could do two adjoining walls black and the other two white.
-
Any suggestions?
-
Actually I like the font as is.

It's difficult to find places with robust photo exhibits. It seems that the medium is left to galleries, magazines and the internet. I am not sure why more museums don't embrace it.
