* Should anyone be allowed to use any picture (or other copyrighted work) without permission and/or compensation from the copyright holder?
* How do you know a work is copyrighted? If it is, how do you get permission to use it?

* How can you protect your own work so it is protected?
* Identify at least two places / locations / Internet sites that you can find pictures / photos that are either copyright free (i.e., anyone can use them for any reason) or you have rights to use (e.g., use for non-commercial purposes).
