    Flickr’s New Licensing Program

    Untitled

    Flickr announced this last week of July their new licensing program describing it as a way for photographers to “partner with photo agencies, editors, bloggers and other creative minds who are seeking original content.” Some photographers may have already received emails via Flickr Mail, while others can still sign up for the program. The Yahoo-owned photo sharing and storage site lists media brands like The New York Times, Reuters, Gizmodo, Monocle, and BBC among the partners, as well as Getty Images. In addition, Yahoo will also possibly showcase photos in Yahoo News and Travel, plus Tumblr.

    This announcement came out via a post on Flickr’s blog and it links out to an interesting “Marketplace” page. This marketplace could be the next big step for the Yahoo-owned photo sharing site. While Flickr is still behind Getty and 500px in terms of licensing images, this program could prove to be an influential resource for photographers to getting their work out there for the world to recognize.

    As of this moment, there’s still no information what the licensing fees would be, Yahoo just told Techcrunch that the payment structure will depend on a number of factors including the type of license, type of photo, etc. To learn more about the announcement, head over to Flickr blog.

    Fotolia iPad App Updates

    Since the launch of the Fotolia app for iPad back in May, the downloads and the responses has been overwhelming. This app is the only application for iPads that lets users download images directly to their Google Drive, Dropbox Folder and iPad camera roll.

    When users look for images, search results appear on a page in a mosaic format and in just one click, the user can view the image they like in high quality. The app also features an information tab that allows users to see more results from the same series, artist, or from the same keyword.

    Fotolia is popularly known for its filter options and this has been integrated into the app that lets users narrow their search options. It also allows users to save their images to their own galleries or sharing them via email or through social media.

    TSCHELTZOFF_Oleg_Fotolia_1024_speaker_photoOleg Tscheltzoff, CEO and co-founder of Fotolia says, “The best applications are those that are fun to use, backed with a reliable service, so that our customers know they can trust Fotolia to help turn their ideas into images, anytime, anywhere!  With an intuitive and modern design, we believe this application is as fun to use as it is useful”.

    The app is compatible with iOS 7 and can be downloaded for free in the App Store.
