Now you know why I use my Sig ( below )...nobody thinks it is worth using ! Hmm...perhaps I should figletize it ? :-) :-) Bye, <==== my sig :-)
I agree that sigs should not be copied without modification. I have copied a couple as demonstrations to newto the art folks leaving the original persons name with them to indicate where I got them. -- Comm again, Mike. 3 Deg 15'7.4" W 54Deg10'41.5" N IF YOU KNOW OF A "PALEY" I'D LOVE AN E-MAIL FROM THEM RAIL TRAVEL IN BRITAIN: THE PRICE OF A TICKET CAN BE *LEGALLY* INCREASED DURING YOUR JOURNEY.

However, ackording to the Berne convention, you do not need to put any type of copyright notice in your original work to lay claim to it. It is recommended that you do put a copyright notice on any original works if you ever want to pursue any violations in a court of law, because those that don't fail miserably at a high rate. Anyone using your .sig could do so freely as long as they put a copyright notice as a "derivative work" or make claim that it is such in some fashion, still of course giving you credit in the original fashion. I do agree that folks who put effort into creating any type of publicly available work, program, code, or art should be givin credit by those utilizing such for whatever reasons. Be good, -MM

That is if the sig is going to be used as yours. Just as a example I would realy be mad if someone used my double skulls in their sig but I would not care if a person only used one with something else. pcdolding -- _____ _____ / \ / \ | () () | pdo...@metz.une.edu.au | () () | \ ^ / ___ __ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ \ ^ / ||||| | |__| \_/ | | | \_/ ||||| ||||| |___ | \ | |___ |___| _/ \_ |||||

Yer sig isn't necessarily an opus or lifetime's achievement, but if you drew it, you own it, publicly declared or not. The copyright laws of the US declare any written work the property of the writer (That doesn't include "I used the word "anal" in a book, and so you can't," of course), and the same extends to other artistic mediums. And a sig is just that. Bleh, I babble. Hope you folks like my sig. (: o -=Thomas J.
