Something Less Dorky

Admin: Update on Auction Posts
Just a heads up, but I will no longer be saving off auction shots in flickr sets. However, I will continue to put auction posts up. Instead of "images via this auction" where images was a link to the flickr set, posts will now read "images at this auction" with this auction being a link to the auction. You can go to the auction to grab the images yourself if interested.
Why am I doing this? Three reasons.
One, it is beginning to consume much more time than I want it to. I post way more now than I used to (30+ posts a day) and I'd like to get some of my time back.
Two, the images have actually become saturated. How many images of a Juno-106 do we really need? Whenever I scrub an auction, if an image looks familiar (they all are beginning to at this point) I'll check my flickr sets to see if I posted them already. This takes a LOT of time and I'm finding that I'm putting up dupes.
Three, I had a seller contact me who said the images I'm capturing are having an adverse effect. People are accusing the seller of grabbing my images for their auctions when the images I have were most likely from that seller's auction! Yep... I was originally capturing the images for two reasons, one for posterity (it would be cool to look back 20 years from now) and two, so people could verify auction images. If you see a questionable auction, you could check the flickr archive and do some research. Well, it looks like that second reason might have backfired. That seller has asked me to remove all of their auction pics. This is the first time that has happened. People are usually thankfull that I put their auction up, but I can understand. The problem with this is that once the Ebay auction link has expired there is no real way to verify who the images came from. Moving forward I'd have to archive and note each seller. That would not only take way too much time, but some sellers might not want me to do this. In short there is no way to keep everyone happy, so I've opted to stop archiving images for now and continue to put up posts for those that want to see and grab them for themselves.
The downside? Once the auction is gone, the images are gone so they are lost. I am still a bit on the fence because of this. I feel like I'm doing an disservice to everyone. If you have an opinion, feel free to comment.
