Don't forget while looking into the copy right the only real rule is if people did/didnot get permission from the proper source. Once permission is given then the copy right holder is the only one concerned and no others may question it. Just type in Copyright into a search and you will get several results. If you are just going to wing it, any one should be really up on the copy right laws, this could take some study. David posted some things to look for . Any one who is a list member must always have permission to post any thing copy write from the source and post it with the post.
