By making your content public, you are also giving other Members on LoveThisPic the right to copy, distribute, publicly perform, publicly display, reproduce and create derivative works from it via the Site, third party websites or applications (for example, via services allowing Members to order prints of Content or t-shirts and similar items containing Content, and via social media websites), provided such use is not for a commercial purpose .

LoveThisPic may manipulate your Content to offer the LoveThisPic Services (including transcoding and/or reformatting Content) to allow its use throughout the LoveThisPic Services.
