Hi All,

I'm new here and also new in microstock. While I'm setting up my portfolio and microstock images, some copy right question came up and I hope I can get some answers :) Thanks in advance!

1. Do I need to apply for a photographer business or register a business to get a copy right license? Or is it simply just type up your copy right information? (For example, 1996-2015, Name)

2. How do you determent the years on the copy right info?
3. Under the camera copy right setting, once I enter the copy right info, will that be all set?

Thanks,
SC

1.  You don't need any of that.  You hold copyright when you create the image.

2.  Your copyright starts the day you create the image.

3.  You should always set the correct date in camera.

The stock sites will automatically add a copyright line to your images. But you own the copyright as soon as you create something, as Sean said.

also that on most camera today, you can set your copyright name in the index of each frame eg.
you can change the numbering system of each photo with your initial
like skye and each frame will be skye001 skye002,etc
if you save each photo on your hard disk, this original can be used to prove you are the creator (owner) of the photo if ever you have to contest someone stole your work.

That is a great idea! Thanks for the suggestion. ;D
