The only recourse amy has, is in regrads to images obtained off her website.
If someone took screencaps of a cam show that he or she recorded, this person is technically the copyright holder as producer, or photographer. If this person paid for this show, the model is technically performing a work for hire, so has no recourse to claim copyright or ownership of such recorded material.  that's my theory... don't take this as factual, but I do think this is the case.. ask a lawyer |
You are kidding, right? Please tell me that you are kidding.
In what world does taking a screen cap make you the copyright holder? Does that mean that if I grab some frames off TiVo of say American Idol that I can sell them on eBay as original content because I clicked a mouse button?
Come on man, the person (model) that is repersented in the image is the copyright holder unless he/she signs those rights over to the photographer.
Please tell me that you were kidding...
