Urbex Photos Credited to... imgur.com?

I was sent a link to check out an urbex gallery and noticed near the bottom of the gallery the following sentence.

"All images come courtesy of Imgur."

Recognize any of the photos or the photographers who aren't getting credit for there work? If so, please contact them.

Don't get me wrong. I love imgur.com, but they aren't the photographers who put the time and energy in to creating this photo content. All That Is Interesting is copying the BuzzFeed model and sucking up content indiscriminately for linkbait.

I'm having flashbacks of eBaumsworld in the early 2000's.

Some of those are freaking amazing. And as an amateur photographer, even I know to watermark. Always watermark.

Yeah, that's a painful truth that I've learned. I don't mind sharing on Flickr w/o a watermark because the probability that I'll be credited appropriately is much better.

Anything I put on imgur gets a watermark specifically because I post to reddit, Facebook, etc.

It's a smart move, but doesn't necessarily mean that the website can take the content and use it without proper attribution. Even Creative Commons licenses have stipulations for use.

I hate watermarks with a passion. They look like shit.

However, I have started using them on some pictures, because they get posted far and wide, and I just want the viewer to be able to find my site so that I can show them more of the same.

Of course, people will still crop it out from time to time.

It's hard to tell re: that Worcester snow cone shot since so many people took the exact same photo.

WEKurtz pulls it off in a way that actually ADDS to the photograph. First one I've seen.
