Key points:

- All content you upload is public and published under a Creative Commons license.

Are there guidelines?
We don't have strict guidelines, but here are a few basic NO-NO rules:
No Selfies
Tripomatic users want to see the attraction, not you. Please don't submit selfies; they will be removed.
No Fancy Filters
We prefer real-life photos with minimal alterations. Filters are okay if they keep the photo realistic and useful. If not, the photo will be removed.
No People
Photos should focus on attractions, not people, unless it’s necessary to illustrate the place, like in a public performance. Generally, we remove photos with people.
No Low Quality Images
Blurry, dark, or poorly taken images will be removed.
No Screenshots
Screenshots suggest unoriginal content. They also look out of place in a gallery. Such photos will be removed.
(All examples in this section were taken in Barcelona by Lukas Nevosad, founder of Tripomatic.)
How will Tripomatic use my photo?
We may use your photo to illustrate a location, in arious materials, whether online or print, related to Tripomatic. Since your photo is published under a Creative Commons license by default, it may also appear elsewhere with attribution to you as the author.
What is a Creative Commons license?
We support open content. By default, all user photos are shared under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license. This license allows anyone to adapt and share the photo as long as they credit the author and share their work under the same license.
If you have multiple photos and want to upload them under a different license, please refer to the question below.
