Wow why would anyone pay money to get a copyright of such a LO! Not to say that your's are not nice...but why would you pay to lay claim to a couple tilted photo's!

Maybe she is nieve about digital scrapbooking and actually how many LO's are out here that aready use that LO design and so many other sketch designs. Now why wouldn't someone like Becky Higgins copyright her LO sketches...the placement in her's are 100% more unique!!

I would assume since she says it is registered at the US Copyright office she must have a copyright patent number! I would ask for that and anything that would be a visual clue image of what she exactly has copyrighted. She would have had to have a diagram of what she wanted to copyright and a detailed list as to why it is different enough that it could be copyrighted. You can not just copyright an idea, like I said that would be like someone trying to obtain a copyright for a 12x12 piece of digital paper with dot or stripes!

It also would be like trying to copyright a #2 pencil....unless you create awhole unique NEW idea of a pencil...like one that works on batteries or something...someone can not just copyright the whole pencil industry!

So this lady is only saying the placement is her's right...not the papers, the text fonts or anything right?
