[OSM-talk] [OTish] Free, geocoded photo database?

One thing I'd like to do with Freemap is allow users to contribute photos of 
the countryside. Now it would make sense if, rather than store the photos 
locally, I use a third party, geocoded photo database.

I believe sites such as flickr offer this but it is not integral (i.e. 
geocoding is not compulsory) and photos are not automatically put under a 
Free licence. 

Is anyone aware of any existing service that offers geocoded photos under a 
guaranteed Free licence? Or should maybe freemap start up its own?

Thanks,
Nick
