Congratulations, Neal!

But I have to say *BOO* to NG for their horrendous terms of service:

"By uploading User Content, however, you grant National Geographic (which
includes its subsidiaries, affiliates, joint venturers, and licensees) the
following rights:* a royalty-free, worldwide, perpetual license to display,
distribute, reproduce, and create derivatives of the User Content, in whole
or in part, without further review or participation from you, in any medium
now existing or subsequently developed, in editorial, commercial,
promotional, and trade uses in connection with NG Products. National
Geographic may license or sublicense, in whole or in part, to third parties
rights in User Content as appropriate to distribute, market, or promote
such NG Products.* An NG Product is defined as "a product of National
Geographic, a subsidiary, affiliate, joint venturer, or licensee of
National Geographic, in any language, over which National Geographic has
Editorial Control.? For the purposes of this Agreement, "Editorial Control"
means the right to review, consult regarding, formulate standards for, or
to exercise a veto over the appearance, text, use, or promotion of the NG
Product. You also agree that National Geographic may make User Content
available to users of the Site who may display and redistribute it in the
same way that National Geographic makes all other Content available."
