^Obsidian-Fox posted a journal about the work of some deviants being posted on Flickr. In his journal, my name appeared. I was aware of these copyright infringements prior but had never chosen to act on them. I got curious as to how to get these images removed. It's not quite as easy as you would think, but here's the info you need along with a template to use to contact Yahoo!, Inc.
