Does Reproducing Of Government Information Comes Under Copyright Act?

July 17th, 2009 at 04:23am Under copyright act

Almost never. Some government information might be confidential, but if it is, then you shouldn’t even be seeing it.
Public information is paid for by taxpayers and is not copyrighted.

Are Tv Screen Images Of Larry King Broadcasting Under Copyright Protection?

July 14th, 2009 at 04:25am Under copyright protection

If I want to use a widely available image of a public figure, say Larry King, on my own website, how do I make sure whether it is in the public domain thus having no copyright protection? Since usually it is the photographer that owns the copyright, is there a simple way to find out whom the photographer is, or I should contact the public figure directly? What about those images floating on the internet that are TV screen shots of Larry King broadcasting? Are they safe to use?

Is It Permissible Under Copyright Law To Use A Font I Own On My Computer In A Painted Mural?

July 11th, 2009 at 10:24am Under copyright law

I know, odd question, but I can’t find anything to support what you CAN do with a font, since the sites I am finding about copyright law mostly talk about what you CAN’T do.
