I stumbled across `
contains-mild-peril's journal this morning, and thought I'd share what was in it with you guys, as it's such an important thing for us to rally against:
"
This petition has been setup to try and stop the UK government changing copyright laws, allowing images to be used on non-commercial websites with no credit or charge.
You can't really charge for non-commercial use, blogs don't have the money, but the picture credit can make up for it. Plus, under the orphans act in America, your images can then be taken off a website and re-used in the US, by commercial entities, with no payment whatsoever."
I don't know about you, but I dislike the idea of my images being used on websites without credit to me. Sure, its great if we get paid for their usage, but if they bring this law into effect then that means we're basically NOT entitled to any money, or any credit at all.
As artists it's amazing if people see our work, but without appropriate crediting how are we supposed to make a name for ourselves? How are we supposed to earn a living?
