What is the story with Yahoo images?

Seems like 99% of the results in Yahoo images come from Flickr. Anyone know why that might be?

Yahoo Images has been closed for some time. They bought out Flickr like 2-3 years ago now, and now use them exclusively.

Sure enough. Okay, I can understand why they give them top rankings, but they give them 100% of the listings for some searches.

Guess they did it in 2005 . . . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...s_and_services

First time I paid any attention to it.

Ditto.

No slight to your thread but I doubt there'll be a second.

This again is why Flickr can be a good promotional tool. We use it and get a little bit of traffic that sticks
