Loving your work!
In the spirit of admiring eye candy, I've had a play with Ning and cloned GoG to create a Brand Vs. Brand version..

How do you deal with the copyright violation when you show photos of celebrities on your site?

Ivan Bueno said...

Hello anonymous, I am not a lawyer, but there is no copyright violation at all. The showing of the photos of celebrities in GoG falls under Fair Use, meaning "the amount varies in proportion to the length of the original, the governing theory being that the use should not decrease the market for the original."

Hi Ivan and 'Anonymous'. Regarding Fair Use, this is an American concept, and as Ning is hosted in the USA, you can thus claim Fair Use. I wouldn't be able to do Brand Vs. Brand on an UK hosting service. See Wikipedia's entry on Fair Use for more details.
