I have received this from nowpublic who want to use my wimbledon pics.

Any thoughts?

Hi,

NowPublic is running a news story on Wimbledon and your photos would be an excellent addition. If you're interested in sharing it, please follow the links below and feel free to add your own comment as well. Looking forward to seeing your work on the site!

In case you haven't heard of us, NowPublic.com is a participatory news website. Please let me know if you have any questions. The requested photos will appear as thumbnails when you follow the link. I'd also encourage you to comment on the article (after following the link) if you have opinions on the topic. It will appear as a comment beneath the article (NOT as a caption to the photo).

If you run into any problems, my e-mail address is hkwan@nowpublic.com Thank you.

Heiky

I admit I am cynical - but isn't this just another way of getting photos without paying for their use. Do they allow newspapers to lift images from their site - I had a pop-up come up with something about various newspapers supporting it.

BTW they are a great set of images

Now although you are not "selling" you are tecnically depriving the organisers any commercial fee that they might have charged.
