I don't think any of these are "owned" by anyone, and none of them are private images. Please correct me RPF if there is something I missed. I found these through pintrest, the RPF and google over the years, or screenshotted them from the movie myself. The PropBlog shot was color corrected by someone on here publicly
I don't want to de-rail - maybe this would be a good discussion in another thread, but:
In regards to "owning" the images - are we talking actual legal rights to a licensed image? Because let's be real - few of us have actually taken photos of the screen used blasters. You can certainly license images, which is one thing. You can make contacts with someone in publishing, at lucasfilm etc to get *access* to images at better resolutions, but they aren't your photos unless you purchase them or the rights.
Now, getting credit for bringing these images to the community is another thing.
But so is indexing, editing, collecting images, deducing details from there - I'd consider that another thing all together.
I don't really have a dog in this fight, but I'd be curious if images actually owned by members are appearing in threads uncredited (though when you post an image online, anyone can copy pasta it and you know that going in) vs posting images you got through connections and jeopardized those relationships by posting them publicly to begin with.
As more of a costumer than a hard edges prop maker in regard to Solo, I have seen plenty of the same images "owned" by members published in books and magazines at different and better resolutions. So who should I point to to credit? The photographer? The publisher of the book? Me, because I posted it?
I don't think it is as black and white as it has been made to be.
