Re: RE: [Digital BW] Image use

This is not correct. If you own a photo you can 
hang any were you like, but you can not copy it 
unless you own the copy right.

I don't believe size or quality matter at all, it is 
completely within your

rights to make a copy of something you own 
and display it.� Of course, it

would be questionable if you make twenty 
copies and put one in each room of

your house, and especially if you gave them 
away, but making ONE, of an

image you already own a copy of, and putting 
the book on the shelf, I

believe, is entirely within the scope of fair use.

Absolutely, but the poster DID in fact pay for 
it.� He said he had a book

that had that very image in it.
