and a very strong warning to people who think they can just google for an image and put it up on their website without much thought or care

according to gideongallery everything is fair use as long as you use the word "shift" and any random term...for example if I steal money out of a bank safe and call it "place shifting" then its perfectly legal and is fair use

Look up fair use. Unless you're making fun of the photo or certain other specific instances, it's not fair use. Getty is a site where you can BUY an image for $10 or so. Just like webmasters, photographers need to get paid so they can eat, and the webmaster of getty needs to eat.

im just admiring female golfers who i find hot...just deleted all of them

for some reason i thought giving them credit and listing them was ok

the more i think about it, surely it isnt ok.

They are "copywriters"... not "copyrighters"

copywriting and copyrighting are two totally different animals.

The mainstream company I work for has a site we built just to show site proofs to clients, basically a list of clients with their work inside.

We placed an image of theirs in the header of a proof and put it up. It had the Getty (or Corbin, I forget) watermark on it, the problem was it was like a 300 dollar image and we wanted to make sure the client wanted to use that one before purchasing it. Getty contacted us threatening to sue one or two days later.

We explained what was going on and after some time they understood but had us remove the proof immediately.

I am curious how they found the image since it was a jpeg of the psd and not the orig pic that possibly had metadata or w/e in it.

Either way, lesson learned.

Same thing goes for music, as BMI is going after everyone on the web.

Woke up this morning with a mild case of food poisoning. Not even close to the top of my game and I misread the post. But still, if your business involves writing then you should be aware of copyright law.

Apparently I'm Canadian now.

And don't forget Gideon's favorite, the branding bugs.

that is one of the differences in having a wordpress blog for your site vs. a forum, at least with a forum you have the "user uploaded" excuse, with a blog, you are responsible for all the images you may put in your posts, and much more legally liable

Need to show that to a couple of people who couldn't understand why I wouldn't let them just pick images off google for their pages and made them select from a stock image site.
