So, guys - here's one for you... Background: I'm getting tired of people posting my flies and stating that they are their own. The more flies with different owners showing up in picture searchs makes the ownership of the material on my own website unclear. I know what copyright is about and until today I thought it was the same "over there" but on a certain discussion forum where you also can upload patterns to a pattern database I ran into a brick wall. The discussion with the administrator has been ridiculous But as an administrator I'd like to assume that he should have some knowledge about rules and laws... and since he's not bending one inch (and getting more and more rude), it's not that I start to wonder if I'm wrong myself.
Someone else has used a photo (taken by myself) from my site and used it for uploading a pattern in the forum's pattern database. First he thought I meant that it was my pattern and he wanted to see a patent ID. I explained that the pattern was beside the point and that it was the picture that was the issue. I think I got that through. But he's still wants to see a patent ID to remove it "or stop wasting his time because I'm bringing up shit that noone but I even care about". Question: Is copyright different in US. Has a US discussion forum more rights than a private person to publish copyrighted pictures? /Nick -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.
