unless you copyright or trademark/watermark an image.....once you load an image into the digital world it's free for the taking.
Ok that's what I was thinking, but you know you will have some hard head that tries to fight it in court.
It's a company called Twitpic that's involved in this: http://news.google.com/news?...
U.S. law says that all works you create are automatically copyrighted by you: http://www.copyright.gov/help/faq... and like most services, users grant Twitpic rights to the their copyrighted material when they upload (as defined in a site's terms of service, end user license, or equivalent.) As Hanks points out, the practical side of that theory is a bit different from an individual copyright holder's perspective since works are exposed to practically everyone on the planet, someone, somewhere will always decide to do something we'd prefer they'd not.
I think the concern is that a recent change in the site's legalese makes it seem they can now also sell users' images—I'm not a lawyer so I'll probably wait a week for the media frenzy to die down and report a final story or two with the real deal.
