I just went to check out Lifehacker, like I do everyday, and ran straight into one of my own photos used in the header for a career article. Appropriate, I suppose, as this pic was an earlier version of the shot I entered in the "Your Occupation" challenge.
"Jump to a new career" on Lifehacker.com
They did give me credit, and a link to the image on my Flickr page, so I'm not really upset, and I do think I have it uploaded with a creative commons license. It's just surprising to go to a site like that and see my own photo on the front page. |

Yes. I'm rather pleased, However, usually someone will PM me asking to use my photo. I suppose with a blog style site like this, they just need to use it in a hurry, and if it has a creative commons license, they just go ahead with it.

Actually, there's an interesting story behind it: //www.dpchallenge.com/forum.php?action=read&FORUM_THREAD_ID=873885&page=2 |

Maybe I should ask for a name change. I don't think we can use spaces here, but I could get it changed to Yo_Spiff. Most people would probably not notice the change.

Submitted a name change request. I don't think this change will confuse anybody.
When I joined this site, it was not important how the name was read, because it was just used to log in, but it makes a difference now. I also never realize how many different ways that could be read. Thanks for letting me know.

I always thought it was: Yo, Spiff!
(Having seen Spaceman Spiff myself!)

I was actually joking. When I saw it at Lifehacker as Yo Spiff, well.... ;-Þ
