What do you usally include on your web site, when it comes to copyrights, rights reserved, etc. I am wanting to enter the freelance arena, and sell some photographs on my website, and some stock photography. Where can I find some good information on the "copyright information" to include on my site, about my pictures and data, etc.

Thanks so much.

Alll that's formally needed on the web site is a simple statement that "All images copyright (c) 1996-2004 chadaw". If you want to include any more than that, you should probably check with a lawyer, as you don't want to inadvertently leave room for someone to circumvent the restrictions you may have placed. For instance, "images may not be downloaded without permission" is a null statement, since by definition they'd need to download them for their browser to display them, so you're telling them they can't look at your work, even on your website.
