Description
The Queen demands your presence....We aint got no presents the stores were all closed....!
I was directed to the copyright forum..looks like there may be some copyright laws being changed that will effect how our art is protected,and how we can defend ourselves if we have our art stolen...It is another law being created by our dishonest government...and puts the burden of proof on the artist not the thief..read the thread and write your congressman and demand this injustice be stopped before we are all screwed..If this thing passes i will have to empty my gallery or modify all 1300 images to be heavily watermarked and labeled with my proof of ownership..as this new law invites stealing.(and this isnt the only gallery we post in).and sorry if this seams like ranting and raving to some..but we have spent years filling our galleries and being told our art was copywritten just by being posted here...This may change and not by the powers of renderosity but by the government themselves.

Dear Bill, There MAY be some changes in the copyright laws in the future - there will ALWAYS be changes happening in all our laws. I too scanned over the discussion in the Forum. I would strongly counsel you to get your legal advice from competent legal counsel - a licensed attorney that specializes in Intellectual Property law - and not rumors and hearsay. Two of the best intellectual property lawyers in this country are right down the hall from me. In fact, one of them just walked by my office door. I am NOT an attorney - and I am NOT QUALIFIED TO OFFER LEGAL ADVICE - that is why you will not find any postings by me in the forum - there are enough unqualified laymens opinions already. As I said, I can not and will not and am not offering legal advice - but I will tell you what I personally have done in these matters. If you take a look at my pictures you will find that they have the distinctive and consistent Meredith hearted logo trademark applied to them and have the words Copyright (C) 2007 Meredith Wilson Corporation All Rights Reserved permanently affixed to them. They also have the web address of Meredith Wilson Corporation which contains extensive contact information. Meredith Wilson Corporation vigorously defends its intellectual property, as it has done in the past, and will continue to do so in the future. Additional information regarding the Proprietary Rights of Meredith Wilson Corporation can be found in the Proprietary Rights section and elsewhere within the General Terms of Service of Meredith Wilson Corporation. Copyright information may be found under the Copyright section. Other important information can be found elsewhere within the General Terms of Service to be found at: General Terms of Service of Meredith Wilson Corporation Meredith Wilson Corporation complies with the requirements of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, Title 17, United States Code. You can view a copy of Meredith Wilson Corporations Digital Millennium Copyright Policy at: Copyright Policy of Meredith Wilson Corporation The entry web portal to the United States Copyright Office can be found on links contained within the Copyright Policy page and directly at: http://www.copyright.gov/ There are many helpful links to be found on this page including Copyright Basics and Frequently Asked Questions. The full text of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 can be found at: http://www.copyright.gov/legislation/dmca.pdf The full text of Title 17, United States Code can be found here: http://www.copyright.gov/title17/ There are people that can and will steal anything and everything - including copyrighted works. There is nothing you can do to PREVENT them from stealing something. They will steal your money, your car, and your art. All you can do in ANY of those cases is to PROSECUTE them after the fact. If a person can see an image on a monitor, they can steal it. You can not stop that. All you can do is take the appropriate legal action after the fact. My totally and completely and unqualified laymans understanding is that nothing will change regarding that in any pending legislation. ONLY COMPETENT LEGAL COUNSEL WITH EXPERIENCE IN INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LAWS IS THE ONLY SOURCE YOU SHOULD RELY UPON. By the way, if you do look at the General Terms of Service of Meredith Wilson Corporation you will find them significantly more draconian that anything you have ever seen at Renderosity. The world changes when its your own head in the noose. As I have said, I am not an attorney and am not qualified to offer legal advice of any kind. All I am qualified to do is to write some very hefty checks to qualified legal counsels. Just a few things you might want to consider!!!! Love ya!!! Meredith

Awesome picture. Ill check out the thread, Proof should be on both as the thief and the owner are unknown until its resolved. As I am in the UK I use DACS (http://www.dacs.org.uk/)for digital stuff as well as hand drawn/painted work. I'm sure the US must have a simular society.
