I don't think attribution or crediting really makes a legal difference in determining whether something is "fair use" or not. It's more like the right thing to do if you are posting someone's artwork etc.
There are alternate systems like Creative Commons license where you are free to use artwork if attribution is made. But in terms of regular copyright law, it doesn't put you on any better or worse ground legally speaking.
- actually "attribution" is a legal term and a major factor for determining 'fair use'. look it up, check wikipedia.uuuuuu
- besides, when you approach for legal action, the first thing they will do is remove the image, no one wants to spend $$ on lawyer for a tumblr postMiguex
- $$$ on lawyers because of a tumblr post, that would be redonkMiguex
- From the link I posted:
"Note that attribution has little to do with fair use; unlike plagiarism, copyright infringement (or non-infringement) doesn't depend on whether you give credit to the source from which you copied."ukit2 - infringement (or non-infringement) doesn't depend on whether you give credit to the source from which you copied."ukit2
