I was having a copyright discussion after church today. Actually the subject was not copyright, but the subject came up for various reasons. I was talking to someone who made a commet about some unauthorised clipart. The case in point was related to some images taken from a web site. The person I was talking to brought up an interesting defense for when an item was not under copyright.

The person noted that a TAFE teacher had reported that Copyright did not subsist on FLICKR images. Rubish. Copyright subsists on all images unless they are in the public domain. Regardless of if someone has uploaded them to a WWW site.
