ALL OF YOUR CREATIVE RIGHTS ARE ABOUT TO BE LOST!

There is a bill called ORPHAN WORKS whose goal is to take all copyrights away from all of us. Painters, graphic artists, photographers...ANYONE

People are trying reeeeeallly hard to pass this bill. As early as before summer. If this bill happens, you will lose ALL rights to your work! And I'm not even talking about finished work posted on the internet. This includes everything from studies to sketchbook doodles, napkin art....ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING that you've ever done!

This is a REAL important matter to anyone in any part of the art field! this can't happen!

Follow the link to hear the whole thing http://www.sellyourtvconceptnow.com/orphan.html

and here's a LONG winded paper on it (it's 133 pages, long)
http://www.copyright.gov/orphan/orphan-report.pdf

And I know it may be a little dry, but listen to the whole thing. There's alot of information that needs to be heard.

This is a real threat to artists and everything we've ever done. This is SO wrong, it's more than not funny...it's downright scary.
