Indeed, any commercial visual artist, such as illustrators, value moral rights to protect their integrity and enhance their reputation.Images are the perfect medium for a digital age, and all photographers use the Internet to enhance their reputation and sell themselves and their work to new and existing clients - either via their own websites, online galleries or stock libraries who license the images on their behalf.  Images are constantly ’lifted’ from the Internet, despite warnings and imbedded metadata, and suddenly appear on other websites and social networking sites – but of course, many are never discovered. Metadata doesn’t stay with images, the publishing process itself often removes it and each time an image is lifted it loses any metadata imbedded – particularly when it changes format. http://hub.the-aop.org/News_archive/p2_articleid/182 aop_admin News archive Wed, 21 Apr 2010 15:56:24 GMT Martin Evening, Paul Ellis, Norman Childs and Tim Flack will be converging on Leonard Street on Saturday May 8th from 10am – 5pm for a day of techy talk, entertaining stories and insight as to how some great images have come to be.
