I've found that there is lots of art being posted on Flickr which were taken from dA without permission of the user. I've got some of my stuff on there posted under a few users, so if anyone has a dA account they might want to check Flickr.

Personally I'm not too fussed about it..

YaHoo removes copyrighted images pretty quickly if reported the correct way, Flickr is full of copyrighted photo's and artwork like all the other photo/file sharing sites cus nobody understands the meaning of copyright anymore.

I was actually trying to find a way to report users but I the FAQ just told me to go to their policy page :)

Yeah I understand that people upload copyrighted material to these websites, but it seems like it's some sort of hobby/business on Flickr because there are heaps of account that are only there to have images from deviantArt posted on them.

http://www.flickr.com/ at the very bottom go to Copyright/IP Policy can't post the url as it keeps redirecting me to the Canadian info will most likely be Yahoo Aus for you. But all th info is there and they do remove things relatively quickly.
