bloggeries asks Jul 22, 2008 03:20PM Emoticons & Copyright - Are they free to use? Beefing up the blog forum emoticons and want to do this right
Te-ge has Jul 22, 2008 03:34PM seen most of the plurk ones a few other places so suspects notmuchmore is right and they're public domain.
KDFrawg says Jul 22, 2008 03:37PM First you need to figure out who one belongs to, which is not an easy feat.
Jane Chin Jul 22, 2008 04:11PM I applaud bloggeries to even ask this question! most would just ignore copyright. kudos, man.
Becca L-Smith says Jul 23, 2008 02:25AM I actually wonder if any emoticons are public domain. They've been copied so freely by people who don't care.
Becca L-Smith says Jul 23, 2008 02:26AM The best way to find out is to track down the original designers. I prefer to get mine from istockphoto
