Subject: more copyright stuff

so, while at the Nashville feis today, I'm with a few adults from another school, and they're talking to two musicians... I suddenly notice the "other" side of teh "feis person badge" - three dancers legs dancing... well, that looks familiar, so I ask to see, and low and behold, it is my picture!
so after we go up to our room, we start talking about copyrights and watermarks and what-not (one of the girls works in graphic someting-or-other)
so, her understanding is that if you just stick the copyright circle thing on your stuff, that's not enough, you have to actually pay for it to be copyrighred... (I swear, I've read differently)
She also mentioned that she's seen/encountered some sort of watermarking thing where it doesn't show up, but when tehy try to print it or edit it then it will have a "watermark" with your info appear - anyone heard of this?
in the meantime, do I confront the feis? it was "just their badges" after all (as opposed to a different feis that used my pics for flyers for the hotel guests...)
