Is their anything by which we come to know whether a pic is copyright or not ?
Everything in internet which is not yours means it is others solo rights when you copy a picture from a site just read their rules about copy right,thats all.
But where do you get all those details. Hopefully its printed in the bottom of every website that "Copyrighted @ 20XX-20XXX". Well the same thing I can add to my blog but it doesn't 100 % mean that its copyrighted. :?:Quote:

i think there is no good way for that unless you know the pic is from you.
if the pic is from others then i dont think it is easy to know the original owner of it.
You can write copyright in any page if the site 's material and site is urs own ,otherwise you can't write any copied photos as copy righted.Quote:

hey nick what i think is that all copyrighted pictures have a watermark of their site and if the picture is not having a watermark then the picture is not copyrighted and anyone can use it.
Copyrighting laws vary by country, but for the most part images are under copyright protection the moment they are created and viewable. Copyright protection applies regardless of whether the work is officially copyrighted or not. You can put a copyright notice immediately on your work without registering. However, registering a copyright with a copyright office proves legal ownership and that will help with legal disputes.
You will have to check the site terms where the image is hosted for that.Quote:
