How much will it cost to copyright for 10 years?

To much money, there is no point at all copying righting something when you are just a kid. Is there? Unless you come up with a million £ idea that could make you endlessy rich.

Good point

In the UK its free , and requires no actaion at all, and the copyright laws from the place of the holder are the ones that apply, which makes stuff ALOT easyer for those over here .

No there isnt one, uk copyright autmaticly

Before you go any further you need to know that there is no official register for copyright. It is an unregistered right (unlike patents, registered designs or trade marks). So, there is no official action to take, (no application to make, forms to fill in or fees to pay). Copyright comes into effect immediately, as soon as something that can be protected is created and "fixed" in some way, eg on paper, on film, via sound recording, as an electronic record on the internet, etc.
