 I remember when I had my first layoff scare five years ago. It was the most stressful, nerve-wracking thing I'd ever experienced. I had not been at the newspaper for a year at that point, and to see so many veteran reporters and editors let go was intimidating. I spent the next few months watching my back, even though I knew that since I was at the bottom of the food chain (and pay scale), my job was probably safe.

 Black Star Rising received the following question from a reader, Darren Gibbins of Fargo, N.D. --
Can you tell me what legal rights I have to publish images I've made throughout my photojournalistic career on my website? Some have suggested that the images belong to the various newspapers I've worked for. I've also been told websites are considered editorial content and I am free to use my images on a site to promote my photography with or without a newspaper's consent. Please help.

Copyright infringement is much too common these days. To reap the big statutory rewards (of at least $750 and up to $150,000 for willful infringements, plus costs and attorneys' fees) from prosecuting infringements, you must have registered your photograph with the U.S. Copyright Office prior to the infringement or within three months of publishing it (making it available to the public).
