The Student Room Group

Grrrrr...

One of my friends got annoyed that I posted photos on the net (journals, and a couple on here) from Freshers Week. She demanded I removed them, and when I posted photos not containing her she still demanded I remove them as she said she'd specifically asked me not to post photos on the net. She seems to be the only one bothered by this, and since I keep in touch with my old friends etc via LiveJournal, FaceBook etc I thought it'd be ok to post photos of me and my flatmates on such sites. My other flatmates post photos on their Myspace, MSN space etc with no hassle from her....

Just makes me so mad...

Luckily not living with them again this year..

Tell her to get lost, and that by posing for the photographs she essentially signed a release form. You own the copyright of them (assuming you took them) and the right to publish them.

She wasn't even in the second lot of photos I posted...just got an arSey message saying to remove them so I did. The first time she saw photos on my journal etc she came storming round to my boyfriend's room (where I was at the time) and gave me a huge yelling at at his front door. When she left I was in tears.

I agree, but thats not true. Posing for a photograph is not the same as signing a release for them to be published.
Tell that to Paris hilton and see what she says.....

I understand that she might be upset about them being there if she's shy or whatever. But what p*ssed me off most was that she picked on me specifically...other people doing it was fine, yet me doing it was this huge problem. I was no longer allowed to show my old friends what I'd been up to unless the photo contained only me... Biatch...

The reason I'm anon by the way is cos the person this is about uses TSR.

I would give you hell for posting a photo of me on the internet. You may have the right to post the photos. She has the right to make your life hell for it. And posting them without her permission was a thoroughly nasty thing to do.

some people are very like, you didn't have permission to post it, privacy bla bla bla bla.

just ignore it, make sure she's not in any of them, or anyone else who's that fussed for that matter.

The first lot I deleted after she asked me to...and more to the point it's not like anyone except my group of friends could see...not like I posted them on Hot or Not...

Second photos she wasn't even in. My point here is that, if everyone else can do it then why is it so bad that I'm doing it? One of my flatmates posts photos on her MSN space and then adds people to msn that she meets in chat rooms...surely that's a worse way of your photos being broadcast?!

PS: It wasn't a nasty thing - nasty implies it was done viciously with intent to cause upset, and it wasn't at all.

She's obviously ugly. Ugly peoples get arsey about their appearance.

Well I'm not going to comment on that one, as I am not the most confident person in the world regarding my appearance. I, however, would never request that photos be removed, especially when it's my friends just showing other friends what they're doing at uni etc. It just makes no sense to me...and just reiterates to me why I didn't wanna live with her in the first place. The rest of them I didn't mind, but I don't think I could've put up with this sort of petty behaviour on her part, singling me out when I'm only doing exactly what everyone else is!

black/distort her face out of the pictures... that way she cant compain (remove her whole body if she really objects) then if she still complains, she doesnt sound like much of a friend, write i witty remark like,

'ther should be 5 of us in thi spicture, howver iv had to remove one of them for freaking out...
or perhaps a comedy message like,

'whoever guesses the missing person wins.... well, they can keep her, hmm actually i suppose that means you lose..? sorry folks!!!'

She wasn't even IN the last lot I posted...

then if she still complains, she doesnt sound like much of a friend


She's not really, she was my flatmate but easier to refer to as a friend...hence why I don't wanna live with them anymore...less hassle not to.

if you don't like her NOW, you should see her pic - sight for sore eyes i tell thee....




sorry bitchiness coming through
I don't understand, y wud she be bothered about photos which she wasn't even in? Fair enough if she's in the photo she has a right to say if she wants it to be posted, but if she wasnt in the 2ns lot of photos then its none of her business! Sounds a bit of a stupid thing for her to have got upset over.
