Hi
As most of you know there is no concept of Copyrights of artists in Pakistan Musicians /Movies/painters poor photographers who don't have any right at all :rofl:huh:cry softwares are littel lucky but not much.

Yesterday i met my buddy who runs a printing press . While discussing about photos etc he told me his company printed hundreds of calanders and financial reports of multinational companies and banks even government organizations

"They always download photos from Net what ever photo they like and some talented graphic designers removes all copyright and there they go on cover" !

He said companies never ever even mention about what photographer gets.

LoL there is a so called photographer in Islamabad who published photo books guess what his work gona be on callenders etc soon without his permission :wink

    Um, wow. Don't know where to even begin.

    This guy is still "buddy"? Brings to mind a cliche: "with friends like that who needs enemies?"
