All I'm doing is echoing what the mods at vB.com do: say that these URLs shouldn't be discussed publicly.

Well, then why not give his visitors a good impression by informing them of this?

speaking of lawsuit, there is noway, even in US, that any1 can be sued, unless providing a Copyright or Contract of Legality and Ownership of any kind of design.

And to get a "copyright" on a forum template design, would be like buying a mark mcgwire rookie card, graded 10, for $1.00.

I haven't seen any proof of someone owning anything. If another person takes the ideas of some1 else, that might be ++++ed up, but it isn't illegal unless its owned by the creator. All I see is text saying things are "copyright". If asked, can these companies provide us with business licenses or proof of ownership? If so, then yes you might have a lawsuit, if not, all it is is just text and ALT+NUMBER commands making the © and ™ signs.

Keep this info incase one of you have a business plan or some sort of idea for something. Make sure you protect yourself @ all angles.

As soon as you create something it has an implied copyright. Not always easy to uphold in court but that's at least one US law to be thankful for.

You can register a copyright and patent but both take a long time and can be expensive for normal end users.

Technically, if you read the Copyright laws (US I think they were), you can put the Copyright ? and year of copyrights on any webpage, and the content is noted as Copyright to that author...

I dont fully understand, as I am in the UK, and US Copyright laws dont apply to us...If someone could clear it up, that would be great

Every country should make its own Copyright laws...

Then they should be reviewed, and then they should be compared to others, and come up with a Universal Copyright law...
