No it isn't. I imagine any pirate out there could use it, so in that sense it's in the public domain, but the rights of the image still belong to its creator. Now the real question is, since this is a picture of me, what are my rights...since I didn't sign a model release form? hehe
We all like to tell ourselves that. I've come across some of my work on other peoples' sites twice. I contacted them personally, and they added my name. Unless you have a legal copyright for everything you post. It's a pretty tough case.
ahh, ok. But what about the ones we are not aware of? Those were brought to my attention, odds on the net are there are others. Does the net respect Canadian law?
IF tree falls in the forest...you don't know of it, does it really matter?
I think if a company in China starts printing pigmentation man on T-shirts, you should be happy, it will lead to an increase in value of the original =P
Clearly the perceived benefits outweigh the bad stuff, as both of us have most of our work on the internet.
And again, if someone did something really dastardly, there is the kick to the shins (the shin kick of justice!).

Can I draw this?
I'm not sure,... let's find out!
Haha, in that sense, probably not (capable of "capturing").
But what I'm asking is for permission, and I think you just gave it. So ...uh, ya. Thanks.
Anything Any of us post online is Free game.

I agree with James, except about the model release thing =P

"Unless you have a legal copyright for everything you post".
-you do
and so far (from what I understand from the post above) you have a 100 % success rate regarding your requests.

I don't understand this part. Please elaborate.
I mean you asked 2 people to add your name, and they both complied.
(In Canada, copyright is automatic, but even aside from that, most people will respect your wishes if you have the chance to speak to them. )
ahh, ok.

=P
it' free until you get your ass kicked. (kicking can be a lawyer or just a good old fashioned kick in the shins I s'pose)
I'll take my chances.
