Hi,
I know there was/is a discussion about using real photo's as FlightGear
textures.
Google Earth was one of the softwares that are usable for our scenery.
We know the pictures are copyrighted, but we may use them in FlightGear because:
- FlightGear is non commercial software (non paid).
And when we read this Google-quote we got the idea we may use the pics...
"You can personally use an image from the application (for example on your
website,
on a blog or in a word document) as long as you preserve the copyrights and
attributions
including the Google logo attribution. However, you cannot sell these to
others, provide
them as part of a service, or use them in a commercial product such as a book
or TV
show without first getting a rights clearance from Google."
My English is not perfect so I may read these sentences on a wrong way. Please
tell me if so.
After all we just need someone who write Google to ask permission.
Here's the aplication form: http://services.google.com/permissions/application
:)
Cheers,
Gijs
