Does anyone here ever copyrighted a website design or website idea? If yes then could you say a little about it? How it works and what exactly we can copyright? I would like to copyright my websites (all graphical content, layout, writings and ideas that engage in one integral wholeness) Is it even possible? I know that eventually we can't stop all thieves that rip our work but perhaps it could reduce the percentage of it.

I guess a website would be visual arts?
-------
Use Form VA (visual arts) for copyright registration of published or
unpublished works of the visual arts. This category consists of “pictorial, graphic, or sculptural works,” including two-dimensional and three-dimensional works of fine, graphic, and applied art, photographs, prints and art reproductions, maps, globes, charts, technical drawings, diagrams, and models.
What Does Copyright Protect? Copyright in a work of the visual arts protects those pictorial, graphic, or sculptural elements that, either alone or in combination, represent an “original work of authorship.” The statute declares: “In no case does copyright protection for an original work of authorship extend to any idea, procedure, process, system, method of operation, concept, principle, or discovery, regardless of the form in which it is described, explained, illustrated, or embodied in such work.”💎 Earn Money by Helping Content Creators Earn More. 💎 The most unique affiliate program in the game.

If you ever go to court because someone stole your idea, design etc, its always a good idea to be able to show dated "Prior Art".

That's called a "poor mans copyright" and it's worthless in court.

A website 'concept' can be copyrighted ... but design elements cannot be copyrighted.

Copyright
You can only legally use the circle C if the copyright was registered. A copyright, like a patent does not protect you from being ripped off. Both are licenses to take someone to court that you believe ripped you off. You still have to prove your case. Copyright & patents just make it easier in court to win. But it's no guarantee of winning.Comment

Three suggestions for you:
1) Read this article by attorney Marc Randazza, as it does a good job in explaining why doing anything other than properly/officially obtaining a registered copyright is a big waste of time and effort.
2) Retain an attorney who has expertise and experience in intellectual property law.
3) Do not take legal advice from adult webmasters. (See suggestions 1 and 2 above.)
I know, I know -- lawyers are expensive. You know what, though? In a volatile, high-risk business sector like the adult entertainment industry, over the long haul, the only thing more expensive than retaining a good attorney is NOT retaining a good attorney.
