Blog 4. Fair Usage

Having searched around the Internet, I found many free images, text, fonts and other useful design product. Sites such as Free clip art . com , Barry's Clip art Services & Animation factory to name a few. They all offer free downloads of clips, but if you are after something less common or more complex, they offer these product at a reasonable rate.

My feelings about using copy written information, is you should have to compensate or site at any given time no matter what the situation call for. The creator deserves the credit, as you would feel the same way on your inventions.

A good example of how to site information has been given by one of our fellow students this quarter, Scott Laslo. As easily as it could have been to re- write his ideas, the honest and reputable way is to site him or in this case link his blog.

I another site called Nolo .com has some good advice plus some links that give you a clear understanding for different situation . This site claim limited usage is okay if criticizing or commenting.

In conclusion if you ever are unsure, quote the greater or research your information to deside how you can use it.
