jreed2132 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 I have a client that had his scanned signature as a .gif on his web site. Someone found that signature and placed in on http://commons.wikimedia.org. Is there anything i could have done to stop this from happening?? Is this even legal?

hackalive Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 I always advise clients to use a 'signature' that is just their full name in a nice font (eg Journal font), never upload their real on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mchl Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Commons will remove it from their site if you can prove your claim, which should be fairly easy. http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Contact_us Other sites might not be so cooperative.

ignace Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Why would you want your client to upload his signature to his website? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
