JK, the law goes a lot further than just the original work, it states that the original plus any "derivatives" are covered. Derivatives is interpreted broadly to cover cropping, using any portion of the image or copying the image or any portion of it to include drawings made from it. But, giving this coverage and proving it is the devil in the details. I've had people tell me that they downloaded one of my images so they could use it or parts of it to make a painting. Whether or not they then sold their copy of my work I'll never know. - EdM
