You can check out the following sites for some good info about copyrights: http://www.templetons.com/brad/copymyths.html http://www.whatiscopyright.org/  Please note that InvisionFree probably can't do anything to enforce your copyright except within InvisionFree itself, so you'd likely have to take the issue up with the webhost or ISP of the offending party or something, or go after them directly via the legal system. :unsure: |

Moved to paid hosting.

In this case it's not your board that needs to be copyrighted, but your work. I would ask the person kindly if they would mention that you made the tutorial with a link to the original page, or if you do not want it to be posted there at all, then ask them to remove it or they will be reported via the report page (if it's another IF board), or to the board administrator of the site in question. |
