Here’s an unusual case of Flickr spam. Advertising has been pasted directly into photos using color backgrounds that are (presumably) designed to foil automated attempts to detect it.

Also looks like the Flickr account containing these photos once belonged to a real person (see their photo sets). Only the last 46 photos are spam. Perhaps some unfortunate users’s account was hijacked for this purpose.

I suppose next we’ll have to contend with mass product placements subtly inserted into cool/interesting photos.
