The problem is there are no rules for how much to charge for images other use or want to use. Normally its a made up figure. The BBC are right sods at using Leeds Uni stuff, especially the special collections ones. If no ones sees the image then they pay nothing! We have to make up a price to charge and get in touch, professionalism at its best. We had Man Utd come across for some of our Man Utd photos with Busby in hospital and I believe it was a nominal fee if they cited they were from our special collections.

You're right! Here it is:

I'm sure Tighty will ship you the cheque as soon as it arrives. If it doesn't, then I'm confident tikay will compensate you from his own pocket. Joy!

Chili took this photo of Richard Wheatly simply because she admired his wonderful stack.

Just to update on this, as it could be a good sweat

The images appeared in five places (two photographs)

Mail On Sunday Print
Daily Mail Print
Mail Online
Daily Telegraph print
Telegraph Online

None sought permission

One of the images was on blondepoker only, the other on THM database and blondepoker so it could have been sourced from either

THM licences a number of our photos from updates (generally where they have gaps in their photo database that we can fill) for its superb results database

Together we are chasing the publications above for payment

Pretty sloppy journalism     ...   wtf has the hubbie got to do with her baking skillz?

His waistline would suggest the munchies coming out of her Aga would have Calenti weak at the knees.

Is your 'flat cleaner' as adept at the Bakewells, Vincenzo?

I'm a bit reticent about all this.

When I post pics on blonde, they either belong to me - I took them - or blonde, which is fine, or, & most frequently, I go to google Images & lift one from there. It never occurs to me to pay anyone for them.

The blondepedia photos - the ones used by the Mail & Telegraph - were presumably lifted from google images, rather than directly from blonde, or THM.

Are not photos on google Images - unless they specificaly say "you may not use without permission", or are "wartermarked" - free to all to use?

If I "lift" a photo from google Images that came from the Daily Telegraph, for example, what is the difference?
