Old News; Do I Care Anymore? -- Alert! Unauthorized(???) Use by http://mapsights.com/
Randomly, about a quarter of my geo-tagged Pano photos (like this one) are now on mapsights.com without my authorization or knowledge ...

... and no, I did not copywrite nor name-imprint any of the photos I uploaded to Panoramio, relying on their protection instead ...

... (subsequently, I have heard from a big-gallery Pano user [New York/New Jersey] that 'Mapsights' is an API that Panoramio authorized a long time ago to use Pano shots ... don't know how reliable that info is) ...

Oh, tanks for the hint, Wally!
Yes, I know about that group, but I missed this discussion.
And Yes, the translator at Pano was better. Not really good, but better. The translator here sometimes has problems with the spaces for instance...

Well, could be that I've heard about long time ago, but there had been so many products and ideas that I can't remember them all.
