I am kind of curious about this and wonder if any one will answer this:





In sporting events like this what are the legal ramifications of taking the kids pics and posting them on the web?


Do you have to get permission from the parents for this?


Or Just permission if you try and sell them?


If the league gives you permission, does that mean the parents consent as well?


I know that in our school system they send releases home if they intend to post any ones pic on the web.


Not long ago a school in Texas wouldn't allow Al Jazeera to take pictures of a game. They said it violated the children's rights.


I know the local television broadcast games, as they are news. I am not sure how all this applies to a local news station. The school never asks for permission for this.


This spring at my daughter's softball game I was asked by several parents if I had a web site, sold pic's etc....


I started to post them on a secure web site and give the other parents the links, but decided not to since I did not have any other parents permission and didn't fully understand the law in this regard.
