What else can I help you with?
Is it copyright infringement if I don't sell the product?
Copyright infringement can occur even if you do not sell the product. Simply using or distributing copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder can still be considered infringement.
If you alter an image, does it still retain its copyright?
Yes, altering an image does not automatically remove its copyright. The original creator still holds the copyright to the altered image.
If i alter a copyrighted painting to teach a technique is that copyright infringement?
Altering a copyrighted painting to teach a technique is still copyright infringement as that falls under derivative works.
Can one copy an image that is trademarked for use on a totally unrelated item?
No. If an image is trademarked for anything, you need specific permission from the owner of the image in order to use it. No matter what you use the image for, the owner of the image can still sue you for copyright infringement (I've seen it happen).
Second owner can sues for infringment?
Any owner of a copyright can sue for infringement as long as the copyright is still valid (i.e., for 95 years from publication).
If I screen shot any Copyright images from your iPhone does that image will automatically be a copyright or not?
The image is still owned by and under copyright by the original creator of the photographer who created the ORIGINAL image. Taking a photo of someone else's photo does not transfer the copyright to you (the iPhone owner).
Can reprography still be employed for copyright violation?
A reprographic image would be infringing on the original.
Is it stealing to watch movies online?
No, because nothing is being stolen. Rightsholders typically feel it is a form of copyright infringement, though, which is still illegal.
Is gymnopedie copyright protected?
Copyright on Satie's Gymnopedies has expired, but recordings are almost certainly still protected, and new significantly edited and/or annotated editions may have been separately registered.
Can you be arrested for watching a movie online if it is still in theaters?
No. Copyright infringement is a civil matter, so you won't be 'arrested' for illegally downloading (streaming is still downloading in a way) a movie, but you can be sued.
How do you publish a movie with a song on Windows Movie Maker 2011 without getting Copyright?
If you are using a Copyright Video and/or Audio, you need expressed written permission from the artist(s) before you can publish it. If you do not get this permission, and still publish it, you risk being sued for Copyright Infringement.
Can you use an image that does not have a copyright symbol?
It depends on whether the work is still copyrighted, whether you have permission, and whether your particular use is exempt from copyright infringement. Copyright symbols have been completely optional as a requirement for copyright ownership for over 20 years, under US copyright law. You have the burden of making sure that the work is not copyrighted before you use it without obtaining a license, if one is necessary for your use.
