The difference is that photo's posted on BP or other sites are available (viewable) publicly.
SKB's were not (until he posted them here) and that is the difference.
The rule use to be that photos of providers (not available to the public) could not be posted on the open board without the permission of the provider.
Something that I personally did not agree on...
I believe that if they allow you to take photos of them then you can post them where ever you want.
After all, photos are owned by the photographer and not by the subject of the photo.
Also... There is a hell of a difference between asking for information and advertising.
At least that is my opinion... One that does not really matter in the grand scheme of things.
