2. Poor man’s copyright

Another good thing you can do is. Mail your design to yourself from another mail box. Then when you recieve your mail DO NOT OPEN IT. The post office seal is a federal seal and could quite possibly stand up in court for copyright infringement as a federal seal is legally binding. I do this from time to time if I think there is a chance I will get ripped off. Not sure how the postal system is handled abroad but here in the States the postal system is a federal system. But nothing beats the good copyright application, but that costs money and I know some of us are pretty strapped for cash.

just figured I would toss it out there — this form of copyright does not hold up in court.

think about it – you can easily mail yourself an unsealed envelope.

so I could mail myself an unsealed envelope today – and when Jay’s comeback album drops next year I could put that cd inside and seal’er on up. and say, “hey - I’m the real Jay Z! Look I recorded this album late '05!”

silly example, but u get the point
