- momavujisic 13y agoI'm actually working right now to try to put some kind of overlay over the images for credit situations. My blog is still a WIP. Sorry!
- pedrocr 13y agoYou say that as if giving credit is enough. If you don't have a license/permission to use the image you're violating copyright and the correct response is to take it down.
- mjn 13y agoSeveral of them might fall within the bounds of fair-use, such as the one about halfway down showing the debris trail, which is included in the context of a discussion of the debris trail. The large image at the top isn't used in a way that would make for a good fair-use argument, though.
- nikcub 13y agoThey all fall under fair use since they were uploaded to social media (so the photographer is no longer the only rights holder and most social media sites assign rights to republish content). That said, it is only fair and nice to credit all sources. The web relies on links and being able to source content back to origins.
- avree 13y agoWell, the whole blog design is very gray-area 'theft' of Medium's design.
- madiator 13y agoOh, I was actually thinking I was reading a post on Medium.
- jrockway 13y agoI don't know what Medium is, but ... a white page with a title on the top? This is just as much a 'theft' of the default Apache "It works!" page.
- ricardobeat 13y agoDesign is about choices. In this case you can point out: 1. top-left square logo, dark gray, slab serif, fixed on scroll 3. bold, large sans-serif title in "off-black" 4. large serif body text with extended line-height 5. 100% width image on top Despite the visual simplicity, there are a lot of variables in effect. It's definitely "inspired" by Medium. (medium has a few different post layouts, but they share the same spirit: https://medium.com/lift-and-drag/5f803f1482e3 https://medium.com/lift-and-drag/5f803f1482e3 vs https://medium.com/lift-and-drag/51691e99279f https://medium.com/lift-and-drag/51691e99279f)
- saraid216 13y agoI think that the lack of author information in the top left is sufficiently different to not even call it gray area. And the lack of paragraph-level comments. The logo and typography seem very similar, even to my untrained eye, though.
- ISL 13y agoNot just credit, but also permission.....
