Of course not, copyright applies as much on the internet as it does for print media. You shouldn't use it unless you have permission of the copyright owner.

I've had my pictures used without permission before and I just sent a polite letter to the publisher with a retrospective invoice for use of my work. Received an apology and cheque within 5 days :cool:

No need for a test case, these things go to court on pretty much a weekly basis. It's much easier to nail people for publishing photos without permission than distributing MP3's via filesharing.

I have no issue with people using my pics around the internet on forums, blogs etc although I prefer they are linked from my Flickr so at least can be traced back as my work. It's when it's used on professional sites and in printed magazines without permision or even a credit you can nail them.

Not havin a pop or anything honest! :grin:
I just think its crazy that a Court can grant a Super injunction which gets torn to shreds in days and yet an image has rights to a person!
Double standards to me.

I'll shut up now! promise!
