If I wanted to use a tripod, I would.

I take photos with my phone, and I don’t want to attach my phone to a tripod and I just don’t want to use a tripod.

Just hire a photographer then? duh

How much money do you think one makes by posting a review on BLF?
My total to date wouldn’t buy a penny candy.

I'm not getting paid for my reviews, and I'm on a fixed income so I'm not going to hire a photographer.

Just hire someone to proofread your posts so that you don't post something stupid (like this sentence that I am writing.)

Duh indeed.

There's what people say, and how they say it.

If someone were to say "How about hiring a photographer", that's perfectly reasonable.

But giving anyone attitude (for no apparent reason) clearly isn't.

I share images here all the time that I didnt take myself and do not own.
I never claim theyre mine. They just help illustrate whatever im talking about. Visual aids.

Am I not even supposed to do this?

The Daily Joke Thread (keep it clean please)

Bill Nye the Cyansky. [image]

Or this?

32700 li-ion

Oooh! With a short/fat cell like that, I could really make a Fallout themed flashlight that looks like it runs on Fusion Cells! [image] [image] [image] [image]

Or this?

Whats under the wrap?

[image] [image] Im wondering if it would be of interest to people to know exactly what cells we are buying when purchasing re-wraps. I cant afford to just start buying cells and unwrapping them myself, but maybe people who care to, can post thier findings here? I can start it off with the unwrapped cell from an Olight Baton S2R II. [image]

Or this?

[Ended] Fireflies Bundle Deal Survey + Giveaway

I dont get it. I want to fill out the survey, but instead it seems to want me to create a survey. [image]

Or this?

The Daily Joke Thread (keep it clean please)

[image] Im just tryna learn about batteries, but the 13 year old in me only sees this.

I cant find any examples to link, but I’ll often screenshot things to circle parts of the photo to then share here so I dont have to try and describe in text form what I can just show with an image…
People are always sharing funny images from around the internet in the Daily Joke thread.
Is Image Boss illegal then?

I have to point out that Reddit is a hub for sharing copyrighted work. It has at least one subreddit dedicated specifically and unambiguously to digital piracy. Apart from that, many subs are essentially image-sharing communities where posters do not own what they post and many (most?) of these subs have no rules about crediting the artist or photographer.

I agree that getting permission for photos used in a formal review is best-practice. It’s just deliciously ironic that we have champions of IP rights coming over here from Reddit. Stop supporting the platform of Reddit if you disagree so strongly with the kind of behavior in enables.

I don't know if this was intended for me, but I don't have a problem with getting permission to post images in a review.

I just didn't know that I had to a few days ago.

Now that I know, I will do it in the future.

I don't like everything about Reddit, but I will be using it so that I can buy and sell knives.

Of course, I like to talk about flashlights, knives, watches, etc. so I'll try to have fun over there while I try to get my numbers up.

It’s for all the White Knights of digital IP who came here from Reddit. If they really feel that strongly they should leave reddit permanently because their engagement translates into money for Reddit. As I said in my last post, Reddit turns a blind eye to organized piracy. If these people care so much they’ll get off that platform.

Oh, okay.

Thanks for that explanation.

I misunderstood your post at first.

You make a good point.
