At the end of the day, whether this lad is in primary school or not right, some of these images are copyright protected, so using them without prior consent or crediting is an infringement of the copyright laws.

Out of the 4 photos he uploaded, I think 2 belong to Dan and the other 2 belong to EMDJT42.

I have just reported the account, simply go on his account, scroll down to the bottom of the page, click report abuse, select option about stolen photos from the drop down menu, click on the Copyright/IP Policy, then submit a copyright claim.

Ah, I'm not that fussed haha.

I use Flickr as a storage medium for my photos too - be no good slapping a copyright notice on there if Go North East or one of these bus magazines wanted to use one of the photos, as I'd have to go hunting for the original copy on my external hard drive (which although sorted by year, month and day, is still too much of a fart on!)

As Gary has said you can tell the inconsistences and the difference of the quality of the cameras used to take all the photos. Also note the difference in the style of titles with many of them being the same as the original source.

Most of the North East photos have been lifted from Malarkey, emdjt42 and my own Flickr accounts.

One's from my Flickr.

Now if we could get rid of Derek Oliver who has mine and a few other forum members photos.

Just a suggestion, how about turning Flickr notifications off on a night so you don't get woken up by them. Not everyone goes to sleep at the same time as you, I'll often turn my phone on when I get up on a morning and find I have notifications from Flickr and other apps. I can get favourites from people at 2am, 5am at times.

Have a look to see if he's stolen anyone else's photos which he has used as profile/cover photos.

This photo of mine is in there.
