Hi!
I discovered that Panoramio started to support Creative Commons licenses 3.0. Looks like my e-mail back into the June 2007 had some influence :-) See http://www.panoramio.com/user/519353 as example but please don't export - all of this photos are in Commons already :-)
Unfortunately licenses are revocable as in Flickr.
I also don't aware of the simple way to filter CC-BY and CC-BY-SA images only. Web interface doesn't have this feature.

This makes me think, out of the blue.
How difficult would it really be for the Foundation (helped around by commons contributors) to get together with Flickr' or Panoramio and develop a "post your freely-licensed pictures to Flickr and to commons at the same time" kind of widget, or something like "ping the commons community to review your pictures and upload them to commons"?
*I* would love it...

That's a thoroughly excellent idea!

In the meantime, recently uploaded free images at Flickr: http://toolserver.org/~magnus/flickrfree.php

It's a cool idea, but we have to take care to keep people aware that these are different projects with sometimes very different goals.
From our perspective, we need to ensure that there is traceability and accountability so that we can deal with people uploading works which are not theirs to license, and we also need to keep our project scope in mind.

Panoramio images are likely to always be in Commons Scope. If not now, in a few time. Unless panoramio grows much faster than wikipedia. But still, bots not only will create articles about each and every town, but also illustrate them!

I posted a comment about this (as "brightbyte", moderation pending). Maybe it would be good if a few of you could voice their agreement (don't spam them though). The link, once more: http://www.panoramio.com/blog/new-update-around-600000-new-photos-from-panoramio-added-to-google-earth/
