Changes to copyright law that you should know about...

I sure as artists we are all aware of copyright law but more often than not we don't tend to pay that much attention to it. Well we should! There are recent changes being proposed to copyright law that would all but strip us of our rights to the very art we create. It likely doesn't surprise you to know those changes are being pushed by 2 powerhouses in the stock photography/art business. The more rights they can strip from artists the easier it is for them to make money from your creativity (as if they don't have enough already).

I strongly suggest you listen to this Podcast that can be found on the Core77 website, I think you'll be as shocked as I was after listening to it. http://www.core77.com/blog/broadcasts/core77_broadcast_brad_holland_on_intellectual_property
