Copyright, Trademark and Blog Design - Webmaster Forum

Copyright, Trademark and Blog Design


Just some information for blog designers out there.

Quote:

Almost every blogger knows that blog design is important when trying to build a successful site. How your site looks and feels not only sets the tone for your blog, but it also is a big part of what separates it from similar sites and gives it an identity of its own.

However, just as with the content and the domain name of your site, there are ethical and legal issues that come with the theme of your site. Specifically, both trademark and copyright law protect or may protect the theme you?re using right now. But unlike the content that fills your pages, most bloggers don?t create their own theme, at least not from scratch, putting them in the position of using someone else?s work on their site.

That being said, the ways in which copyright and trademark impact Web design is not nearly as simple and as straightforward as with other types of content due to how the laws overlap and what they don?t protect.
