haven’t seen such a comprehensive list of privacy settings on any soical site. It virtually takes care of all my privacy concerns regarding search. I think most of the guys who have seen these privacy settings would agree with me. Good day!

I liked the feature very much. I also did a comparison with google image search on a very small scale. Overall, I think this is a much better service than before and is definitely google image search killer. Here is the link: http://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-2VHiCE8zc6edKEkg_L5Xl6VXzX9k?p=2

i’ve been with yahoo email from the beginning. but if i can’t cut and paste a few pictures into my emails any more… i’ll need to go else where… & if i am using my cable company for my email box… i’ll just change to google for my home page.

flicrs great… but i just want to paste a few small pic in my emails from time to time…

i bet i’m not the only one who’s ready to move… just thought you should know…

and this seems to be the only place i can find to express myself to your company. sw

Yes i am totally satisfied with the comments provided by Lisa regarding the crawling of the image. If anyone won’t like there image to be crawled he/she can disallow the premission of the image folder to be crawled. that’s it. I think yahoo provides the best feature rather than google or any other search engine.

This is a pretty awesome feature. Maybe there can be a link to something like “See more photos from XYZ tagged with ‘gem’”?

Just to make it clear, I think this is a good thing. I dont mind my photos showing up – however I enquired because I know people will.

I think people who blown it out of proportion and started on with their ‘I’m a paying customer’ or ‘I wont be renewing my subscription’ lark need to get a grip.

There was obviously going to be considerations to privacy and copyright, etc – but it was just a case of where these options and details were.

Mmm, I should’ve looked at my Flickr settings page sooner (especially the Privacy & Permissions tab). Over there you have the option to opt-in/out.

I rest my case, good new search feature ;)

@Rodrigo:
The privacy stuff moved me away from Google years ago.

Changing permissions is not the issue here, of course I assume “private” images are not showing up. The problem here is license. I’m marked most of my images “All rights reserved” and hope they will not show up.

Can someone from Yahoo! explain what licenses are being used in the image search inclusion?
