No, just a photo in the public domain on the Internet...Google images, type in rendezvous, something like that...

Actually, the photo is not "public domain". All photographs are copyright protected, even if they are on the internet and don;t bare a copyright mark. That particular one has a copyright watermark.

Well, two comments come to mind:
1) Didn't know "photos" in general were not public domain if they were just out there...where is that written about / covered?

2) Took me forever but when I tilt the screen just right I can see it in the upper left corner...maybe a moderator can delete it if that's appropriate...past the time for me to be able to do it.

If all the Web moderators should do so, the internet would collapse. :rotf:

Nope, my attention stays about middle ways. :grin:

I guess my take on things like this is that it's in the public domain, accessible by the public without any pasword protection, etc...ie: a link could have been posted to see the photo, so I didn't see the problem with actually posting it...figured it was a 'fair use' thing.

I didn't see this as any different than somebody who recently posted a photo of toby bridgers from years ago...or photos of guns at places on the Internet, etc.

I could definitely see a problem if somebody started making muzzleloading oriented brochures or something and included copies of someone else's photo without their permission, etc...and worse, if such a brochure was sold and money was being made, etc...

Aw yes, nothing like women in period dress :applause:

I actually checked this out as I used some stuff from the internet for a presentation to a bunch of gardners. I sent emails for permission to the publishers who owned the stuff and got not replies. What I did learn on one of their sites was that you can download anything from the net for your own use and you can show it to others. What you cannot do is reproduce it and distribute it.

 

What corners? I don't see any sharp corners.
That lady does a fine job on her clothing. It looks like a shot from the past. Thanks for posting Round ball.

If ya ain't selling copies I don't think there is a copyright infringement.

That's mostly correct. Technically, anything we create, (write, draw, photograph) is automatically copyrighted, by virtue of the fact that we "created" it. If you shoot a photo of your gourd canteen and post it, I may not use that photo for commercial purposes. You own the "rights" to that photo, even if there is no copyright mark present.

Obviously, no one is going to get sued over "borrowing" an image from one web site and showing it on another, unless of course, it is being used to generate revenue.

"Public Domain", however, means that either the copyright has expired or the work was placed in the public domain by the author.

That's not a watermark, it's drool.

Me, I would not worry one way or the other. If one is protective and so desires, there are very simple programs that prevent copying anything from a web page.

I posted this a while back but I think it deserves repeating:

That's what my clients think, until I show them otherwise. :grin:

Yes, you can prevent the "right-click" download and you can prevent remote linking to images. You can even put your content in a Flash file, but anything you can see on your monitor can be yours. :winking:
