  1. I wrote to Alamy trying to get clarification on their selling my photo copyright. Moseley Road is not the copyright holder, I am. Alamy needs to be credited with the source of the images. Nothing about the creator photographer. So for 15.00 Minus commission resulting in 9 dollars, Alamy sold my copyrighted photo and the copyright to the photo for a book which can be the cover. How does Alamy sell the copyright to my photos? I thought they were still mine. I brought this up to them and nothing has changed as you can see below for the photo I no longer own on November 8, 2023. I would say that Alamy said it would be taken care of, whatever that meant, but since I was banned from the forum for truthfully pointing things out about previous issues with payments which had a lot of supportive comments, I should not say anything on here other than you can see the data yourself which was pulled today, December 18, 2023. I didn’t realize they are selling the copyrights to our photos and having them site Alamy still but not myself, the photographer. Maybe I am missing something here? If so, could someone let me know as this really was the first time I noticed they sold the copyright with my photo. Is this new? Normal? Part of the contract? This is a serious inquiry as I feel like I must be missing something here. free Country: Worldwide Usage: Editorial, Editorial Use.

  2. The U.S. Supreme Court is set to ponder in a case centering on work by Andy Warhol a question as philosophical as it is legal: when a work is inspired by other material, what is the line between art and copyright theft? https://www.cbc.ca/news/entertainment/supreme-court-warhol-goldsmith-1.6612368
  3. Copyright is obviously a bit of a minefield but I have a question ! I bought a print, initially to copy and put on the wall of my old farmhouse in Hungary, which I will still do, but the quality is so good and so detailed that it would be fine for Alamy via the archival route. It is an original print that has a postcard type layout printed on the back. It was taken by a Hungarian photographer in the 1930s who has been deceased for more than 70 years. A small signature is on the print and obviously I would attribute his name in the title and tags. There are also other images by this photographer being used online buy not the image I have. Whilst he has been deceased for more than 70 years, I am also aware that copyright can be passed on to a heir or heirs so I have been trying to find out if it applies in this instance. Somebody in a Facebook group I am with asked a similar question and I answered as above regarding the 70 year rule ... but was then answered by someone who said that I was almost correct but not fully ... she said "The material rights part can be passed on, not the personal rights". She then went on to say that she is a lawyer who deals with copyright litigation. Now, I am not going to take the word of a stranger on Facebook and get bitten somewhere down the line so, the question is, has anybody else heard of a difference between material and personal rights because I have never heard of them and Google is no help either !!
  4. Thought this was interesting about the expiration of copyright. https://web.law.duke.edu/cspd/publicdomainday/2019/
