| |
| − | | |
| − | There are usually several complications with using images from websites (other than from '''Wikipedia Commons''') including:
| |
| − | | |
| − | # getting consent to use from the correct person;
| |
| − | # having to pay a fee to get the consent needed to use;
| |
| − | # a fine may be payable if content is used without consent and you wish to continue using it; '''and/or'''
| |
| − | # having to remove the content and amend the project, if consent is not given from the actual owner;
| |
| − | | |
| − | For these reasons, we would '''strongly''' encourage that you use media from the '''Wikipedia Commons''' website.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you must use content from other websites, please approach your lecturer for assistance on this project.

| − | It is important to make sure that material used on your project (“content”) does not infringe intellectual property laws or is unsuitable for publishing on the internet.
