Flickr Request for Photo Permision please read enclosed and give me your take, of there are any possible downsides to this.

Thanks.→[More:]Subject:

Joanna Newsom photos

Hi danf,

I work for an online news agency called NowPublic.com. I’ve written a small article about Joanna Newsom, and I need some good photos of her. I found some of yours through Flickr and I’m wondering if you’d be able to help and share them.

If so, please click on the link below for instructions:

www.nowpublic.com/import/457db8915700e3.96894562

You'll get full credit for your photo. You can also post a comment or write your own review if you'd like.

Cheers!

Victoria

I submit for NowPublic and they've been great.

Not really a downside, but NowPublic is a bit of a mess. You might ask to see the article before agreeing to lend a photo.

It's sort of a cross between Wikinews and Digg. I don't really see a downside if you think the article is OK. See what else this user has worked on.

I've twice asked for Flickr permission for Wikipedia uploads, and twice got no response.
