iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 31, 2004 Sorry but this was the best forum I could find to put this discussion in. Please mvoe it if you feel another forum is more suited for this discussion.Anyway, I've been working on my website, and I've come to a part where I am showing that I use a Canon Powershot G5 camera. I was wondering, since Canon is a company, do I need to put anything on page like Powershot is a trademark of Canon or something like that? Also, I have created some graphics for my website, and I am wondering if I need to put copyright or anything on my page to say i created the graphics. One more thing, one of my banners uses a section of a screen shot of this program, and I'm wondering if I need to put anything on my page concerning that.THanks for help, I really want to have a legal website :Dskyglow1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iGuest 3 Report post Posted January 2, 2005 the best way i know to word it is "Powershot and the Canon logo are registered trademarks of Canon Inc." and make the cords Conon Inc link to their site, as for your copyrights, you could best due that through the US Copyright Office http://www.copyright.gov/ if you live in the US, otherwise check for the copyright office for your country Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
