bunkie68 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 If you use a straight FO, how do you describe it? Do you use the description on the supplier's website, or put it into your own words? I know some descriptions are copyrighted, and obviously with those, you'd paraphrase, but I wasn't sure about the ones that aren't copyrighted.

Wendy Shoofitz Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 Are descriptions copyrighted? New one on me, but I wouldn't doubt it these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGirl Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 I usually use some of the words in a supplier's description -- sometimes I don't see a way around it. When the scent has vanilla undertones and a spicy kick -- there's only so many words you can use! But I try to personalize them so that they catch people's attention. I want my descriptions to paint a picture of the scent so that the person can actually feel it. I figure if they stop and read the whole descrption and then say "I want that!" to themselves -- that's most of the battle right there.

bunkie68 Posted September 1, 2007 Author Share Posted September 1, 2007 Are descriptions copyrighted? New one on me, but I wouldn't doubt it these days.I know I'd tried to copy and paste from a couple of sites to share the description with my boyfriend (he's not actually making tarts, but he's moral support! ), and some places wouldn't allow copying and pasting.I'll use the basic descriptions and tweak them for myself as best as I can, then - gotta get my scent list together so I can get my website up and running! :smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 Anything that is typed up on a website is automatically the copyright of the owner. Best to reword the description. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
