FAQ Page --- Frequently
Asked Questions Page |
Q: What is the best resolution with which to
view the OLOF Web?. |
A: 1024 pixels wide is good and 1152 or 1920 px are
excellent.
800 x 600 is too low and is likely to truncate OLOF and other web
page(s), See next Answer to change your monitor resolution. The OLOF home
page and most other pages are designed to be viewed with a monitor set
in the range of 1024 to 1920 px wide. |
| |
| Q: How do I
determine and/or change my monitor screen resolution?. |
| A: RIGHT click on your desk top IE on your wall paper
or other clear area which is free of activity. Select "settings". Your
resolution will be displayed and can be changed. After changing up
to 1024 you may find the screen print size looking a little smaller. You
can improve that by clicking on the "appearance" tab (at the top next to
the "Settings" tab) and then in the "Font Size" box selecting "Large" and
then "apply" |
| |
| Q: Why is the right hand panel Empty? Could it
not be used for something useful? |
| A: The page is designed to exactly fill the
screen of a monitor that is set to the most common resolution of 1024
pixels. The right hand frame is expandable and programmed to fill the extra space created when viewing the page at
resolutions greater than 1024 px. This fills the panel with a pleasant
background which somewhat balances the left menu frame. Anything placed in
this area will likely be randomly truncated on different monitors. |
| |
| Q: I
am curious to know if any other countries check in to the OLOF Site |
| |
| A: Shown below is a fairly typical report.

"What am I allowed to
photograph"
Who "owns" the photograph? |

Copyright
- The U.S. Constitution and
the Federal Copyright Act protect the original works of "authors."
The "author" is the copyright owner, and has exclusive rights to
make copies of his work, create other works based on the original,
display or perform the work in public and make copies of the work
for sale, lease, rent or lending.
Photo Copyright Ownership
- The "author" is the person
who took the
photo; the owner is the person who snapped the shutter. If a
photographer takes a photo of you, that photographer owns the
copyright of the photo. A photographer who is employed by a
studio--or even newspapers--is not usually considered the "author,"
the employer is.
Copyright Registration
- Registration is not
required for copyright protection. There is a $20 fee as of 2009
and forms that need to be filled out in order to register a
copyright, which makes it a pricey and time-consuming for a
photographer to register thousands of
photos. Instead, a photographer may chose to register just his
portfolio photographs.
Web Photos
-
Copyright infringement, the unauthorized use of copyrighted work,
includes photos on the Web, as well as in
print. Even if you do not see a copyright symbol, you should
suspect that it probably is protected and not available for public
use. It is recommended that photographers use copyright watermarks
or include a copyright symbol to protect their images that appear
on the Web.
Idea Copyright
- An artist's work is their
own. There are more than a half-million images of the Golden Gate
Bridge on Flickr, but each is unique to a specific photographer. It
is possible for someone to try to recreate a more stylized or
studio shot that is truly an original concept, but the infringement
can be challenged, and it would be up to a court to decide on the
degree of similarity between the works.

|
| Full reading of all three links above will make you an expert on
Photographers "Rights" and on "Who owns a photograph. The short answers
are: |
a) The person who presses the shutter button is the owner. (unless
there is a contract to the contrary)
You may not "lift" a photo off of a Web Site and show it on another
site or publish it in any form.. However this is done all the
time and common decency and etiquette require that you at least ask
permission and give credit to the owner.
|
b) You can legally photograph almost anything you see in a public
place or on publicly accessible private property.. (but there are many
exceptions including invasion of privacy and libel considerations)

| SPAM. What is it and How To Minimize It? |

|
| The short answer: |
| You get spam because you have exposed your unencoded,
unobfusticated Email address on a web site, chat room, or other Web
Vehicle. |
| Web crawler, (AKA Bots = Robots) software is constantly scanning
the entire Internet for addresses to harvest and sell to spammers. |
| What can you do?
Change your address -- this is a rather draconian measure to be
sure.
If you have an alias ----change it.
Expand the header if you can and forward the Spam to
Spam@uce.gov See third link
on how to do this.
Encode your address in Javascript*** or make it into an image or add
stuff that humans will recognize.
In other than the latest versions of Outlook and Outlook Express, do
not have the preview pane open.
It is open by default. Make the default closed.
Do not open any unrecognized attachments or links.
Use a spam filter but note that they are sometimes unreliable and cause
loss of genuine mail. ISPs like Charter offer spam filtering.
There is a wealth of other tips in the second link above.
NOTE: Getting spam has nothing to do with what ISP, server, or
equipment you are using. It is all a matter of guarding your
Email Address.
*** All OLOF Web Email addresses are Javascript encoded.
