Yes
i am doing my own website and want to put some sort of legal thingymebob to warn people about using my pics etc
Any idea's on what should be put?

the site in me sig btw. its just a template at the mo.
 
something like All images *©name here 2006, No images may be copied or reproduced
 
sorry i meant i wouldnt mind a bit of personal use and maybe even send out the originals but for business they need to make a donation or something - to a charity (brummies next cam charity :lol: )

sorry for being vague but i have a terrible cold and struggling to read to much with this headache. eye strain on the TFT :(
 
Might be an idea to put "All rights reserved" on there too - it indicates that you're aware of your rights and are prepared to assert them if need be, IIRC
 
anyone know of any pre writtenm stuff or should i just put the two suggestions on the bottom of ech photo??
 
You dont actually have to put ANYTHING at all - its a statutory right enshrined in UK (and some internationally agreed) laws.

Tacking "All Rights Reserved, copyright brummie" would do as a warning that you know what you are on about though but it isnt required. :)

The Law said:
The Photographer has the right to credit, which will be printed, on or in reasonable proximity to all published reproductions of the Photograph(s). The Photographer will assert his/her statutory right to be identified in the circumstances set out in sections 77-79 of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 or any amended or re-enactment thereof.

Thats just for starters... :p :D
 
thx guys, i'll put the notices up :)
 
Have a good read through it. There's alot to it, but it does make common sense for those that haven't got a 100% financial/business interest in their work, as it allows a certain amount of free license to people, depending on which level you choose.

Which level did you choose?
