(Theoretically, that is, as I'm not sure how much precedence has been set and because the whole copyright thing online is fairly new.) According to their site it's all been drafted with proper legalese. <BR/>You can choose how you want/don't want your work to be used, and by whom. For instance, I chose to share with non-commercial folks with attribution. <BR/>I've had a friend recently find his work printed in a northern magazine without attribution, which is bunk. So the poaching does happen. At least if you have creative commons you are one step closer to protecting your rights - by saying, resoundingly, THAT'S MINE. <BR/>Hope that helps...Kate Novahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02922631587427699587noreply@blogger.com
