HELP Baha'i images copyright??? HELP

cire perdue · 01-19-2012, 10:14 AM

I would like to have/need a poster for our World Religion Day booth Sunday with an image of the House of Worship of India.

DOES ANYBODY HAVE A SOURCE OR A WAY FOR ME TO BE ABLE TO GET THAT PRINTED AT A FEDEX/KINKO'S? They won't print without written copyright permission.

ANYBODY GOT A POSTER SIZE IMAGE THAT COULD BE OVERNIGHTED TO ME?

I would additionally love to have a picture of the HOW in Willmette, but would settle for the India HOW. Almost every Indian person I meet here has been to the HOW. I tell them I'm a Baha'i and they all say they've been there, not seen it, but been to it.................

You might try Baha'i Media Bank.

Their images are high resolution sufficient for posters, and copy right free. Perhaps they could give you a letter to that effect.

Good luck!

Cire,

You could take the image you want to a local blue print shop and I bet they'd print to your satisfaction.. this happened to me when I wanted a copy made of a photo of the dedication of the Panama Temple years ago... Kingo refused claiming they couldn't do it...soooo I took it to the blue print shop and whallah it was done to perfection. As long as no body makes money off it I doubt you'll have problems..

To be more specific, Baha'i materials are indeed copyrighted, but may be freely copied and distributed (though there may be a request that the copyright be mentioned or explicitly stated on the material when this is done).

Peace, :-)
