Hi Amo,

Maybe the photo belongs to them an is copyrighted BUT (to through a legal cat amongst the pigeons if you like) Did they ask your permission to take said photo??
Ahhhh seeee eh?

If it was at any of their events the small print on the tickets covers this issue, entry to the event is accepting the T's&C's etc

What twats! What else can I say.

[ctrlaltdelboy]

copyright of any photo taken automatically vests in the photographer, irrespective of who/what the picture is of or where/when it was taken with or without permission.

without this right the papparazzi and the rags they sell their photos to would all be out of business! (not forgetting non-gutter photographers as well though)

sounds like the respondent to amo's enquiry was pretty quick to jump on the defensive in that reply, which tells me they have been bombarded in the past with folks giving them grief about publishing pics without getting permission etc.

best get the car plastered in some NSXCB stickers for the next one then eh?

Yeah I know I know,i was reall bored once and readt teh small print!! I just like playing Devils Advocate!..............Good idea about the stickers though, infact I am surprised that no such club sticker exists?

Anyone want to volunteer to get that done?

Jim

[NSXGB]

There are club stickers in existance. . . Maybe TQO could produce some more, sell them for slight profit and donate profit to the running of the web site? Just an idea.
