SELECT FLICKR USERS BEGIN TO GET GETTY INVITES
The partnership between Flickr and Getty Images is finally
moving forward. Early Wednesday the Yahoo-owned
photo-sharing service announced that invitations from Getty
have been going out in high numbers. Some members who have
had one or more of their images chosen to be on Getty's sale
site could have gotten notice as early as last week.^@
Originally announced in July, the special Flickr-branded
Getty collection will be launching in early March. It's the
first official move by Flickr where users can sell their
images, although all the purchasing and organization will be
done on Getty's end. In the interim Getty has set up a
Flickr group where those selected can discuss licensing and
rights issues if there are any. Unlike microstock services
such as iStockPhoto, Shutterstock, and Fotolia, the
Getty/Flickr partnership will be royalty-free and
rights-managed only. It's also going to continue to be
invite-only, whereas the other sites allow user submissions.
