    if you were a contractor, then the work is yours... the design that is. technically, if you are a contractor, you still own the design and if they print future versions, they have to pay you.

    if you were an employee or under a "work for hire" contract, the work is theirs as if they did it themselves. in this case they can tell you exactly what you can and cannot do with it... including to never display it.

    the difference between a contractor and employee is sticky... if they told you when to work and where to work, probably you were legally an employee. if you worked on your own schedule, you might be a contractor. if you used their equipment and software, you might be an employee. if they did not pay worker's comp and such for you, you might be a contractor... complicated i know.
