And, as I mentioned earlier, flickr is the favorite hunting grounds of art directors the world over. Hell, I've even helped some of them hunt when we were pressed for time. Literally tens of thousands of comp ads have been built with ripped flickr pics. That offends some, since the pic is rarely purchased, but instead is reshot in a slightly different manner by a photographer who gets paid to dollar.
