At www.everystockphoto.com, feedback from flickr users led us to delist
all NC/ND photos because we have adds on the site. Although we are a
search engine, these users felt that we were violating the terms of
these licenses, 1. by indexing NC photos on a site with ads, 2. by
making thumbnails of out ND photos.
I cant quite figure it out via that flowchart.
Would love to hear other people's opinions.
