If you're a member of Istockphoto.com, be wary of entering the Vox Banner Contest.
I was a bit worried that participating in the contest might constitute a breach of the contract I have with Istockphoto.com, and an inquiry to their Support has confirmed my suspicions.
They wrote to me: Any one using any file obtained from iStockphoto would be in violation of the Content Licensing Agreement if they used our files for Vox's banner context. The exclusivity agreement would also prevent you [an exclusive iStocker, that is] from entering this contest with your files.
Ah, well. Off to remove the banner entries I made. It was fun! But I have a legal agreement with iStockphoto and that's that! Good luck to all others who entered and many, many thanks to those who said nice things about my efforts.
