Just seen an advert on the Box with Mr Beckham advertising a competition for Adidas to Take the Stage with David Beckham

I dunno if I believe Beckham shoots or not, you never can tell, all sorts of peeps you wouldn't expect to...do

Why ouch, that sort of thing is not new and, to be honest most people entering will not be photographers just football fans wanting to meet DB. They will not give a jot about their image.

Well let the football fans enter the comp....The comp is for the sponsor to get to get free images....Isn't it ?

Usually it's in the form of granting the people running the competition an unlimited license to use the image, which is bad enough.

Here you're ceding *all* your rights to the image. Technically, you couldn't even print a copy for your friends or family without their permission.

i had a look at the website... and as usual... it's a case of getting as many votes as you can off your friends to get into the top 10 - then they will be judged by DB and a.n.others.... hardly a photography competition after all is it :thumbsdown:

Hey thanks for that, I was wondering.

Again a competition that grabs images and relies on stupid the naive and those who never read small print.

As said, it's for football fans...
