No you need to pay to have a copyright made.

Re: Re: Re: Copywright
 

no you dont (that is only if you want it to be officiallized by the goverment so they know it is yours... but if you have other ways to prove you made it and when then you dont need to pay if you dont want to...

Re: Re: Re: Re: Copywright
 

no. to legaly copyright something you need to pay, you can't just say "this is mine i made it i swear!" you need to have it legalized

Send it to yourself in the mail, that way it'll be dated and if anyone wants you to prove that you made it before them, you have the date on the envelope...

no way to tell the original contents of an envelope

Well let me use this example being a writer: if you write a novel, it is automaticly copyrighted in every legal sense (though it wouldn't hurt to mail yourself a copy), then send it to a publisher. Many beginning writers believe you have to add that their manuscript is copyrighted; they do not, anything you, yourself create or write is automaticly copyrighted.

kinda like when you write a computer program it is automatically legally copyrighted...

you can find a lot of info on copyrights on the inter just do some reasearch

Exactly. But, you can't copyright things such as names, or ideas.

you can trademark it

Its very hard to get an item copywrited, you ahve to pay thousands of pounds, its not like saying this is mine, ill pay 5 quid now it is allways mine

it cant cost that much, peach has copywrighted midis he made. I just wanna copywright these gifs for Babylon before putting them up so others servers dont use them

There. BTW, once you make something you own the copyright to it. Paying the government to copyright it is just a way to get cold hard PROOF that you originally made it, so you can sue people and win =]

To sum up the page, if you simply create something and it has never been made before, it's yours, you can force people to stop using your copyrighted work.

Registering it takes it one step forward, you can sue if they violate the copyright.

you can force people to remove copyrighted material without a registered copyright, but you need it to be registered to sue for monetary damages

It doesnt have a link to where to get it copywrighted though =/
