I may have missed something in all this? With me that's always possible! ;-)

"HOWEVER, I DO NOT SEE ANYTHNG ABOUT COMPENSATION!!!"  ??????????????????
If your photographs are posted and used?  Or is this just another bunch of 
crooked stock people sucking the blood out of decent hard working 
photographers??????? And catering to the collections of millions of 
iphone/pads/ do-dad/ thingmebobber recording devices where they use your 
picture! They collect money! You get your name under the photo!!! 
.............        HOOP-TEE-DO!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyone with a greater indepth on what kind of operaton this is????

THANK YOU!

cheers,
ted
