SO if some one rips your site or other work off. somthing you may have spent ages doing, you can stop them, aka get the site shut down, so you can get credit for your work.

Sueing is a last resorted, youd be pretty stupid to sue strate out, as it would cost one hell of alot more than youd be likly get from it.

3 Easy Steps.

1) Contact the owner via email
2) If they dont remove the content email the host (give them 74 Hours)
3) Now, this should only be done if they dont comply. Sue! :p

You need to pay for full copyright on anysite. although its free to put a copyright notice at the bottom of your site, if it gets to a stage where your needed to sue someone then the court may take not having copyright documents and use it against you to settle to case faster an easyer

You cant however put copyright on Habbo Fansites as Habbo can sue you for copyrighting their own work
