The subject of copyright, and especially copyright on the web, involves many different
aspects, only one of which is discussed in detail on this site. To learn more about this complex issue, please visit the
sites below.
Written by a lawyer, this document clearly explains copyright, from an international perspective. This is important given
the nature of this medium we call the World Wide Web. Before this site came into being, there was a lot of
speculation that US copyright laws did not apply overseas. This simply is not true, get the facts.
Artists have R.I.G.H.T.S. - Redistribution In Graphics Has Got To Stop! If you have a
linkware graphics site, and your terms don't state that if you create webpages for hire you must pay for a license to use
them...you might want to change them. There are people using our hard work to make themselves look good, and they think
they're doing no wrong.
One way we've found to help people understand that just because it's easy to save graphics doesn't make it right, is to
take away the ability to right-click. If you've been looking for a good javascript to do just that, you'll find one that
works with both Netscape and MSIE here. But think about the other things people use the right-click button for, and
try to provide the same functionality. Don't be more restrictive than necessary or you'll alienate people for no reason.
