I haven't the foggiest about what can be considered for copyright and what can't; only that when Loveti (?) carried Dahnov's Meno collection, previously only seen at DCD, the torches and pitchforks came out, but when a Tiffany image is ripped by a PS vendor, no one says anything.Any image/content produced by an individual or business is a subject of copyright?![]()
Correction: Promoter of Laveti (?) has never been accused for violating copyright law. He simply abused the forum with shameless self-promotion and bragging about it.Date: 7/6/2006 4:51:58 PM

Thank you. We have made a practice of approaching the company first. In several past instances we''ve written a letter requesting removal and each time that request has been honored.Date: 7/6/2006 4:33:25 PM

JulieN and John Q, Adiamor is a member of JVC and JBT. Why don''t you address the issue of copyrighted image with these organizations?
Nope....I''m not searching by cut.Date: 7/6/2006 4:42:25 PM

price comparison, in house. Alj, you are searching by cut. anyway, my question has been answered, thank you.
I think you're confusing infringement by way of using someone else's image and possibly infringement of their "design".
I see. got it.Date: 7/6/2006 5:26:01 PM

I was going from the Pricescope your diamond search at the top of the page.
The listing has since been removed.
Thank you JulieN, and now we will, neither PS nor it''s community are private investigating agencies and if anything is missed there is no need to assume a hidden agenda before reporting an abuse you think should be addressed.Date: 7/6/2006 4:51:58 PM

To add even a bit more context.....there are exemptions in copyright law called "fair use" that do allow some uses to occur without violating that law. Those exemptions are the reason that things like criticism, commentary, parody and other things can occur. So, to the moderator's point, the best thing is to report something because it may be exempt or may not be.Date: 7/6/2006 5:28:23 PM

Having said that, fair use is vague enough and murky enough that it''s not really something I''d want to rely on.
Those fair use provisions would likely not hold water in instances where a vendor uses another vendor''s images on its website (as it seems Adiamor is doing) to possibly sell a competing product and create confusion in the marketplace.
Sure you can, RG. My pleasure.Date: 7/6/2006 5:43:13 PM
