Just in case you were wondering about Screenshot Legalities....
I've always stated that many movie review sites with articles do SCREENCAPS, especially of DVD since they are not only reviewing the movie, but also the DVD itself (Menus, easter eggs, Special features, Extras, Subtitling, sound quality, etc.) IMFDB falls into the same category with 'legally acquired' DVDs and other media when we do screenshots of films and shows.
Digital Millennium Copyright Act Exemptions updated on July 2010: Quote:
Specific Exemptions are also for EDUCATIONAL purposes and either documentary or noncommercial videos.
Remember that we are an educational site. We are not only providing historical Cinematic trivia which may be lost to the ages, but we're a reference guide for movie and gun buffs world wide. So the next time any member wonders if our screenshots are legal, remember this post. |

I'm more worried about jacked gun images taken from other sites that have absolutely no notice up about where they came from.

Sometimes, there are pictures of guns that we don't have on IMFDB. It's hard to know what to do then, I usually just go with external links so people can still see it. I figure if the link takes them to the original site, credit where credit is due, etc.
