Let's say I print out a photo I found online at Yahoo News or something. I obviously don't own the copyright to the photo, but I want to use it in a collage I'm making. Is this legal? What if I wanted to sell the collage? What if I found a photo I wanted to use from a photographer's website, or if I wanted to use a photo I saw on Flickr... same rules as the news photo, or different? How does copyright work when making collages, anyways?
I've been wanting to make a collage lately, and I was just wondering about this stuff. No plans to sell the collage, but I was wondering how the copyright would work out anyways. =)
Um, just to say.. I don't thumb-down any answers.
