Some of our posts of late have come under question of copyright law infringement, and after close and careful examination, the posts have been re-instated.
Simply stated, this is the KitMaker Networks policy outline on the issue:
"These posts (by a volunteer with no financial interests in KitMaker or Model Shipwright) were meant to be informative and done in the spirit of 'fair-use' as outlined by US copyright law. Further we are asking all users of the site to (as a courtesy, not a legal requirement) give credit to any sources of information they may post.
Also it is the site owners policy that if a copyright owner takes issue with any of their material being used by modelers on a community based web site such as this, than they can contact us to ask that the information be removed."
