Bye bye stock photos. Worst part is there's no way to opt out unless you delete your account. Glad I never got into the instagram craze.

I don't instagram, and another reason why I don't upload full resolution pics on the net.

Not an Instagram person myself.

It does make me wonder if Facebook will ever implement a change like that for itself. Even though all images of value for me are watermarked, I would still close my account. Perhaps I'm getting way ahead of myself :?

Watermarks can easily be removed now thanks to Phtoshop's healing tools.

The only pictures I have on Instagram are self shots of me in the mirror wearing thongs and yoga pants.

You should tag them with famous locations and common stock photo searches so that when people are looking for promotional photos for say "CN Tower" there will be a picture of your ass in a thong hahaha.

That's not really the purpose of IG though. It would be more like displaying your work at a gallery and then they decide to start selling your stuff and claim it's theirs. You never existed and you get nothing from it.
