IMPORTANT MATTER FOR ALL ARTISTS

~FutureElements:iconFutureElements: reports, May 8, 2008
Hi everyone,

I just received this and I am sure a lot of you will hear about it eventually. So please read and it affects all of us ad artist and designers. Listen to the MP3 and it explains everything. Long story short people will be able to use our artwork however they want if we don't stop this now.

The message below will be self-explanatory. There is an important issue facing us as artists, related to the copyrights of our works, which corporations wish to control and take at our expense. You could lose ownership of the art you create. We must put a stop to this immediately unless you wish to see others owning and plagiarizing your art.


This is too important to ignore please participate and forward to your others.

Congress is rushing these bills through to a floor vote. The House will start marking up their version of the bill at 2:00 today; the Senate will do so tomorrow. To try to stop this bill, we first need to slow down the race to get it passed.

FROM THE ILLUSTRATORS' PARTNERSHIP

Take Action: Don't Let Congress Orphan Our Work

We've set up an online site for visual artists to e-mail their Senators and Representatives with one click.

This site is open to professional artists, photographers and any member of the image-making public.

We've provided sample letters from individuals representing different sectors of the visual arts.

If you're opposed to the Orphan Works act, this site is yours to use.

For international artists and our colleagues overseas, we've provided a special link, with a sample letter and instructions as to whom to write.


2 minutes is all it takes to write Congress and protect your copyright:

Please forward this message to every artist you know.

If they cannot find themselves... then they have no soul.
~FutureElements:iconFutureElements: May 8, 2008, 12:39:59 PM
Not really. Big companies like Disney already have all of there stuff copy righted. They could fight against someone that ripped their artwork. It is the small guys like us that it will affect more. Seriously listen to the MP3 they actually talk about Disney in it and how they would be affected or not affected.

Free art to sell or use for advertising. Big guys from Microsoft are heavily pushing this act. They could pick up art for free copyright it then sell it. They have the money to do it and they could pull in higher profit margins because they don't have to pay the artist if they did not copy right it.

I make a living at this so I don't have that choice. I would have to copyright everything I put up.

From what I understand, this has failed every time it's been introduced. What's to stop it from working this time? Surely people in higher office would see how this would destroy creativity and the entertainment industry.

If it does pass, then I'm moving to Australia and vandalizing at least one American monument. I'll lose all respect I had for this country.
~xacuchina:iconxacuchina: May 8, 2008, 3:55:37 PM
as do alot of us, even if we don't make money on our work we still have to protect our stuff let's hope this bill fails

Thankfully with the new PM, Australia might think twice before following America. I hope.

So if this goes through, does that mean that only American art can be "Legally Ripped"?
