Talking PROTECT YO' SELF!!but how???....

What are some ways, we can protect our artwork/ideas, and not spend to much $$$ doing it? it seems that everyone is stealing everyone else's ideas. I was told to mail the ideas and artwork to your own home address so it can be stamped by the post office, and then when it arrives, not to open the enveloppe.

is there any other method???


Thanks in advance!!!

Known as the poor man's copyright. It's an urban myth.

You can copyright it officially. It won't stop anyone stealing it, but it does mean you can try and sue the pants off of them if they do
