Legal Aspect (Images) for Photo Frame Service

Question

Images

Tell me - today I see a number of sites that allow you to insert your photo into a “cool frame”, that is, let's say a frame is taken from a movie and a photo uploaded by the user is inserted on the TV screen in this frame. Or some kind of cartoon-floral background.

That is, it looks something like this:



The question is as follows - will someone's rights be violated if a collage frame is made from the pictures found in the search engine, and then used in such a service?

Answer 1

Of course it will be broken. Read, at least, the standard model release, which is signed between the photographer and the model. It says about the use of both the image as a whole and its part.

Answer 2

And how exactly is it used in such a service? Stored and shown to other users? In theory, you just need to try to shift all the responsibility to end users. Those. The tool makes collages from files uploaded and found (using a search engine) by the user.

Answer 3

The rights of the owner of the picture you found in the search engine will be violated.

Answer 4

Used as follows ( http://ru.picjoke.net/effect/887 as an example ):
The user is given a choice of "backgrounds", i.e. from templates. The user uploads his photo and gets the result in the form of his photo inserted into this template.
