The copywrite thing is a CYA move, I have seen Joe and transformer sites do the same and as far as I know they are not required either.
On the picutre specific site, well part of that is the nature in which the SW bring the medium, usually in the threads themselves and copy and paste to other forums. Why is SW fandom this way, well from what I have gathered (by actually speaking to them) most haven't got HTML knowledge and apparently the ones who started were even worse. The [aste from photobucket method seems to be the norm, odd to me granted but no less or more than making your own pages on a website. Point is the way they developed is vastly different than Joe dios.
Photocomics, by the same token, developed differently as well. Most have the daily or multi daily format of thier drawn cousins. It makes one or the other no less viable, useable, or even valid. But the nature of how these things developed in different communities plays heavily into how they are presented, presearved and who exactly hosts them and where.
