Re: Flash and sketch books
I just sent in a 15 PG. set of tribal into the copyright ofc it takes awhile to get done and it cost $45.00 you have to make sure that you send in the final copies exactly how they are to be sold ie..(sketchbook complete and binded) As far as i know and heard by law your art is copyrighted as soon as u put a signature on but it wont stand in court with just that ,,,, As far as the poor man copyright ive heard that i doesnt stand up in court because you can always send just an open envelope not sealed through the mail to get the post ofc mark and date on it then put the art work in it ..
An artist friend of mine found this out the hard way with his art work.... Som A holes out there acually send a bunch of enevelopes through the mail just to get the post ofc mark on them then they go through and steal artwork from many different types of artist
I Hope some of this helps ya out i may be wrong on the poor mans copyright and the sig. copyright BUT like i said i just payed the 45 to get the copyrights to all my art work for sale its easier for me that way no B.S. as far as what stands up in court if need be
