							| DOUBT ABOUT CLIPARTS BLOG 
 HI!  I need a piece of advice!
 
 Along
the years I`ve saved in my computer a big collection of cliparts which
I found  in different sites or in google. I`ve classified them into
categories ( animals, food, clothes, princesses, hello kitty,
halloween, Garfield etc) and it is important to say they are not
watermarked.
 
 Last weekend I created a blog to post the
cliparts in order to share them, but now my doubt is whether I can do
that or not, because of copyrights.
 
 Of course I dont want to make a profit from the blog.
 
 please tell me if you think I should continue with the site or not...!

							| since they �re not watermarked, they aren �t meant to be sold it means you don �t have to subscribe to the site to get the unwatermarked pictures... so the ones you have are for public use and you can in turn share them with others

							| Ummm .... What??????????   Are you sure sa3ida ????????????  You think just because there is no watermark you can DISTRIBUTE (share) it?   Noooooooooo. No way. Uh-uh. fraid not.  You should adhere to EACH policY of EACH site you got the clip art from.
 For example, in many cases ... you can use free clip art where the owner asks for a link back. Can you be sure this is not warranted???   I would suggest that ... if dan1238 can remember where ALL the clip art pics came from and adheres to EVERY website preference. Then she would post.   So ...    perhaps you might consider sharing the link where you got the clip art. Much safer.     |  18 Mar 2010

							| Darryl is correct.  You need to get permission from the owner of each clipart.   Sharing the link is a far safer way of sharing the collection.  |  18 Mar 2010
