The editor/owner of Jetphotos.net has been quick to reassure us about the new agreements at the other side.

I'm pretty much sure that it will be have new photogs register at jetphotos.net at the upcoming time. Unless Anet changes their terms.

Check Anet. There's also a thread up there.

Here's a copy of what I've got in my email from jetphotos.

Firstly, while the scope of our usage license was always implied, we have added some specific text to our Photo Usage Terms, which you can see here:

http://www.jetphotos.net/photousage/

This additional text serves one purpose -- to put in writing the policy we've always had regarding use of your photos. In layman's terms, this policy states, uncategorically, that we assume no ownership rights of the photos you upload to JetPhotos.Net, that we will never use your photos for any purpose other than displaying them on the JetPhotos.Net website, and that if, in the future, you decide you no longer want to display your photos on the site, we will remove them from our database, no questions asked. Your photos belong to you, and how you want them to be used is your decision, not ours.

If you feel that we can change any aspect of our Photo Usage Policy to further benefit you, the photographer, please let me know personally by replying to this e-mail. I'd be very interested in hearing from you!

I hope this e-mail has reasserted our commitment to protecting your rights as individual photographers, and indeed the rights of the entire community. From myself, and the entire team at JetPhotos.Net, thank you for allowing us to display your images, and we look forward to serving you in the future.

Kind regards,

Chris Kilroy
Editor, JetPhotos.Net
