Thank you. I will be going to the link you sent shortly. Have a great day. Hugs, Laura...
If placement guide line stitches are place down first in a design is that idea copyrighted? I saw design where the guide lines are right in the design. I ...
I'm not a lawyer, so this is just my opinion: YOUR guide line stitches will be for YOUR design. Therefore they wouldn't be the same as someone else's. It's...
I am not a lawyer, but in my opinion this is not a copyright issue. Copyright pertains to '“original works of authorship,” including literary, dramatic,...
The hubby and I were out shopping yesterday. He needed a new winter coat. We went to Macy's because I had a coupon. As we were walking in, I noticed that the...
My husband works at Harry's Farmers Market in Alpharetta (the parent store of Harry's and Whole Foods locally). They don't allow photography either. When...
Hi Jenny, The issue of no photography in shopping establishments and strip malls and closed in malls is part of the Homeland Security. We don't want ...
Exactly right Kathy. In the thought process to develop an embroidery design comes the ideas or images of how to place the design upon the screen for the best...
Kitty, you are one hundred per cent right. Ideas are not copyrightable. Thus, when one is working with an idea for something, tells someone else and that...
I do not think the general public has a laid back attitude so much as not understanding exactly what is going on with Homeland Security. To my knowledge there...
If this is the case, then would taking a picture and using it in your store be breaking copyright? Or what if you sketched a rough picture? One could go back...
Hi! That could be the case, yes. But overall complacency has driven us to where we are today. This took many years in the making. And even though strict...
Copying the layout of a store design set-up or display is not a copyright infringement. The way items are displayed on a shelf isn't able to be "patented" or...
Mudd, You got it! You're one hundred percent right! And there is no gray area in the copyright laws. What I discover as an artist are those who would...
They are VERY OFTEN copied. There is a new store in Texas that looks exactly like a Harry's/Whole Foods. I heard they tried to do something about it, but...
Thanks for the laugh. I almost choked on my coffee when I saw this. ...."Plainly written and easily understood"???? Are we reading the same document? Dana...
I didn't say in my message that it was in any way related to copyright infringement, I just said that they don't allow pictures so that competitors won't so...
daluess, I wondered about that when I read it too, and I don't think either of us are trying to burn anybody by saying something, but isn't the reason this...
In the fashion industry, the slopers, sleeves, lapels, legs and waistband combinations (that make a garment) are limited. I sat in on two garment lawsuit...
Hi! I have operated a design business for 30 years now and have never found them gray at all! With the help of Sonny Bono in 1978, we (artist) were saved from...
Where does it say that this group was formed because "the copyright laws are VERY gray?" The Home Page doesn't state this. ... think either of us are trying to...
The concepts of copyright law are very clearly presented at http://copyright.gov. If you created any "original" intellectual work, and you published it, it's...
I think she meant the conversation, not this group. If that is the case, then she is right. The copyright laws are pretty gray, not to mention most of the laws...
I've been watching this thread and actually the laws are plain and straight forward and very grey at the same time. For instance. Certain copyrights cover...
Thanks, Jennifer. Yes, what I meant was that there would be no need for us to be having this group discussion that has gone on for so long if it were made so...
I respectfully disagree. IMHO there isn't a law on the books that doesn't have gray areas. In the end, it all boils down to the interpretation by us humans,...
I do agree with you Mudd. There are laws that are very specific as to what they cover....income tax, sales tax, first admendment, etc. However when you get...
Here is what happened to me. In 1994 I sent for a copy right on a paperdoll shape to be sewn on a sweat shirt front. Hook and look on the neck, hands and fee....
