IANAL, but I believe that you automatically have a fair amount of copyright
protection under most countries laws. That said, if you got into a dispute with
someone over who did what you might find yourself having trouble proving you're
the creator/author/whatever. The plagarism issue didn't have that difficulty
because there where a number of other people who knew about the true ownership
of the creations.

| Is it as simple as saying, "I took the picture; therefore, it is copyrighted by me," or is it a more invovled legal process like patenting? The thread about plagiarism started me thinking about it. Chris (24 years ago, 29-Jan-00, to lugnet.general)
