Should Demotix show some responsibility and support to photographers that submit images to them?

I was made aware of a sorry situation regarding a photographer who submits stories to Demotix. Please see the below linked blog for further details, but I want to raise this as an ethical issue that needs some thought.

Profile Information

Current position and base (organization, company, etc.): Director: The Five Fingers Design Company and Cannedphoto

Biography: I started Canned Photography about 5 years ago in the summer of 2006. I am a designer by trade and have been involved with the graphics industry for over 25 years.

I started out as a time served lithographic printer, with long stints in the studio and darkroom and I can remember dish developing halftone negatives in an icy room and trying to control the temperature of the chemicals with a kettle of hot water! A nightmare as you can imagine.

Everything I have done in my career has only added to the graphic knowledge pool I have acquired over the years. I have always taken photographs. I have directed on photoshoots and designed enormous numbers of all sorts of items requiring photographic images. In short, over the years, I have worked with images until they they have come out of my ears!

So a few of years ago I decided that I would control my own images! I would visualise them, shoot them, direct them, develop them and print them! Of course at one time this would have been impossible due to the time constraints involved - but, with the advent of digital cameras capable of competing with the quality of traditional film - everything is now possible! And consequently I’m like a kiddy in a sweet shop!

Specialities & interests: Photography (of course), Music, Reading, Squash, Art, Guitar, Hiking
