BayImg was an image hosting website founded in 2007 by The Pirate Bay.〔Mennecke, Thomas (June 20, 2007). ("BayIMG takes on ImageShack" ). Slyck News.〕〔 ((English tr. ))〕 BayImg provides a no-registration service that does not have any copyright license enforced on its images.〔("FAQ" ). Bayimg.com.〕 BayImg currently has a 100MB file limit and supports over 140 different file formats. Uploaded images are automatically converted to JPEG format. It uses tag clouds to browse images and supports removal codes for images. The website aims to host all images that are legal but reserves the right to remove images due to technical reasons. Anyone may upload and remain fully anonymous, making it harder to track down which user uploaded a certain image. It has been criticised in the past for the 'unnecessary' use of JavaScript to load images.
By the word "legal", BayImg means legal under Swedish law. Pre-publication images from ''GQ'', ''Vogue'', ''Teen Vogue'' and ''Lucky'', posted to BayImg, became part of a legal battle when Conde Nast's servers were illegally accessed and links to the images were posted on a fashion blog. The blogger was IP-traced, raided by the FBI, and settled with Conde Nast. ==Notes== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「BayImg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
