I put a lot of pictures of actor and actress in my dvd database, when you download an update from invelos, have you got it for example to "Astérix & Obélix : Mission Cléopâtre" code "3388334807500"?

what a pity! Thanks for your answer anyway

What Skip forgot to say is that you can download a huge collection of headshots, "for your own PERSONAL use" indeed, right here... If you want to share your headshots with other users, you may consider contributing to that Headshot Master Database. Instructions on how to do that are included in the thread I linked to.

I know it seems a pity to you and many others. so let mne try and expand a bit for you. MOST pictures releated to people who work in film are COPYRIGHTED by SOMEBODY. As such, the Copyright Holder in some instances is legally entitled to be compensated for his "work", you are under US Court Ruling allowed to use such images for your own PERSONAL use, it's called Fair Use, but once the images a traded or exchanged in any form then Copyright Law comes into play. Invelos would have to charge substantially more for the program to be able to allow for that, so keep the program cheap won out.

In addition to Skip's reason above is the fact that if Invelos were to include headshots in the online database it would take a whole lot more bandwith and storage than is warranted.  Plus, there seems to be a difference of opinion just which headshot one should use for any given actor/actress.  For this reason and Skip's it's reasonable to leave headshots to the local end of Profiler.

Yes... For example using someone's headshot (Hitchcock, Spielberg... or Disney...) for an avatar is a direct
violation of the Copyright Laws.

I love people who give lessons to others and never apply them to themselves...

A Copyright Violation is a Copyright Violation. It is no different from what a Bootlegger  (Pirate) does. It involves Copyrighted material being used and shared and the person or organization who holds the copyright is NOT being compensated, it is called THEFT. You are entitled to build your own Headshot Library under Fair use, you are not entitled to share said images in any way without clearances or paying a licensing fee to the holder. It is simple it is cut and dried, it is what I have said in much less direct terms for many years, theft is theft and a thief is thief no matter how he rationalizes his actions. My biggest worry is that the headshot database accessibility exposes all of us AND INVELOS due to the illegal actions of a few. I will continue to build my own, and will share it with nobody as the law dictates.
