It looks like they killed basically all libraries

Howdy IPlural..

Wow! I am super-confused! I would dearly love to design my own Windows skins with Object Desktop, as it looks like a great way to express my art in a useful way. Do I have to get a copyright for each skin that I design? And if the answer is "Not necessarily," what recourse would I have if I did not copyright my art and unscrupulous vultures ripped it off and uploaded it on another site without my consent or recognition of my creation? Is that a run-on sentence? Sorry. Anyway, I haven't gotten the software yet, but jeepers, what a thing to have to worry about. Help!

According to law, a art design will only need your name©year on it. And that's all you have to do. You don't have to pay for this copyright. Pictures like photographs require a watermark which you have to pay for. And physical stuff like inventions need patients.

CyberChic....no 'copyright notices, statements or even signatures are required to establish 'copyright'.
All that is needed is some means of you verifying your authorship.
Having your name or watermark on it is the simplest way, along with some method if showing that the work existed on your computer before it was ever released to the public via the web....

After typing my responce, I took a moment to read and, Yeah what Mr Jafo said!

Thanks Weaksid, JamMeister33, Jafo, and iPlural for the advice. That's certainly a relief. I will check out the link, JamMeister33. On another note, it cost me $35 at the Library of Congress to get a copyright on a song my son wrote. My signature is a whole lot less expensive than shelling out $35 every time I create a new painting or skin. Y'all are saving me a bundle. Thanks again!

I would register a song if it had promise, mainly because someone might on the off chance here it, claim it and registed it on you.

Artwork you can pretty much put your thumbprint in them with the watermark as jafo suggested, so that would be harder for someone to claim...
