Have you ever heard of Schmap? Well, I hadn't either. Until I got a flickr mail from them asking their permission to use one of my photos I host at flickr for their online travel guides. It's not really commercial of me to grant them permission, I know, but I kinda like the idea that my photo is used for their publication. So what the hack... ;-)
Have a look at www.schmap.com/portland/home and somewhere on that site you'll might come across my photo.
Has anybody here at ipernity made similar experiences? How do you handle such requests? Do you generally like to give a permission or do you only give a permission against a gratification of some sort? I'd really like to know what you think of it. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Regards,
Guido

As probably many photographers here or on flickr I am naturally interested in seeing my photos used somehow somewhere. But I think if someone really makes "big bugs" with my photos they should share ;-)
I have also seen some of my photos being used in blogs though almost no one ever made the effort to at least announce to me they would use 'em. I do not disable the possibility on flickr to blog them so it already implies my consent. But of course it would be nice to know...
