RE: Potential Payout Changes with HF 19 Launch

in #hf198 years ago

Hey @timcliff, may I ask where you got that photo?

Did you use that photo to discuss kiwifruit?

Why did you pick that photo?

Who took that photo?

How much money, if any, did it cost to obtain that photo?

Can I use that photo on my blog and make money on it?

Well, I had noticed that you hadn't said what the source of the image was. And you know what? A lot of Steemians have a hard time finding public domain and/or Creative Common sharable images. In fact, there are many who just copy and paste images, wherever they find them, into their Steem Blog. And some people "borrow" fellow Steemian photos for their own use if the image goes along with their new post.

That's why I just made a post about the issue. I've been working on it all week. Wouldn't it be great if you could have found an image made by a fellow Steemian? Imagine if you were going to receive a few hundred dollars from a post, and you shared in reverse... meaning a few dollars from your earnings went to the Stock Photographer who took it?

Sound like an interesting idea? Steem is about sharing the rewards, why not share the rewards for a stock photo with a Steemian photographer? There would need to be a Steem Stock Photos place, first to find those great images, so check out my idea about it. Thanks!
