Copyright Law
applies to me as a Web Designer because if someone
were to take something off your website, you would want to be
protected. When you would want to take something off of someone else's
website, like a picture, it is always wise to ask permission of the
owner. You could sue
another
person if they took your images or other things. Even if a picture or
video is on the web, it does not mean that it is free to take. To avoid
people from taking your stuff, steps can be taken. It is possible to
put watermarks or alt text on images to notfy that it is protected by
copyright. My source for this information is from
