Thanks realspeed, just thought it might be useful.
The problem is that it's such a complicated area generally. The other issue with copyright was brought home to me working in the printing trade. We were the last stop, those who reproduced the work from the 'stolen' or 'unauthorised' image, so the buck stopped with us as did any future legal action. The customer signing a disclaimer re: their acceptance for any copyright infringement solved that problem.
I've even had people who created their own advertisement on their PC, copying an image from the internet
with the owner's watermark right across it and expected me to retouch it and use it in a publication!
