Copyright and Picasa
Mate, it boils down to this. If you think my photos are good enough to steal
for your own good self, then great for you. there only aircraft photos. Personally I think that you would get off your arse and do it yourself but I appreciate ther are those who can't and tehn there are those who just don't want to. I guess you fit in teh later. I photograph a LOT of RICH peoples toys and it is sometimes them that will do the chasing. Not me. So what ever you reckon is fine, I am fine with. And just try and get away with something that has the EAA logo in it without their permission. "Joseph Testagrose" wrote in message ... Read the case law and stop with the stupid comments when you don't know what you are talking about. On Sat, 01 Nov 2008 05:14:46 GMT, "Glenn" wrote: But you don't have a fair right to it either. Try and profit from one of anyone elses images and you'd not have much of a leg to stand on. Sounds to me like you are trying to justify putting an image you have seen on the web to promote your own business. as I understand it, the US copyright law (not anyone elses) states that it is for non profit organisations like charities. Not companies and not websites for the fun of it. jump up and down all you like, it seems that you using my photo is more upsetting to you than it is to me. curious, do you work for webshots. They like to bluff as well but they pull the images before it gets into a bum fight. "Joseph Testagrose" wrote in message . .. People, stop the stupid comments in reference to us copyright law and read up on it. Once you have published your work you do not have an absolute right to it, fair use trumps your rights. If you do not want fair use to trump yorr rights then dont post your pictures, READ THE CASE LAW AND STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT THE FAIR USE OF YOUR COPYRIGHT PICTURES. GROW UP AND LEARN ABOUT FAIR USE AND BY THE WAY LEARN ABOUT WHETHER YOUR PICTURE IS EVEN ENTITLED TO COPY RIGHT PROTECTION.

Uploading it does NOT put it in the public domain. There is never a time when it automatically goes in to public domain until after the copyright expires. Under current US law, could be 100+ years. (You have the Disney corporation (among others) to thank for pushing for longer and longer copyrights.) Granted, the copyright holder may have a difficult time preventing you from using it or tracking you down if you do use the photo without permission, but they have (almost) complete legal control over its use. The "almost" part refers to gray areas surrounding parody and reviews. But copyright is WAY to complex to be explained in 2 paragraphs. Check wikipedia for a better overview and links to more detailed explanation. Then the US have it completely wrong. What is the difference between people seeing your work on the newsgroup, and people seeing your work on somebody else's webpage, with attributions to you? They didn't ask? Not enough of a difference. The people accessing them are still seein a photo with the author's name on it, all that has changed is the method they use to access the photo. |

Nothing else. Freeloading off others. try armed robbery, it's a little dicier but the benefits are better. Get the right case law and you'll probably find it's legal too ;-) |
