While this decision reflects the British courts, hopefully it signals more decisions in the photographers favour in future. What is particularly interesting is that it wasn't the design firm, who apparently misled the client, but the client who was found guilty of breaching copyright.

"The Patents County Court issued a much needed judgement last week on the subject of websites infringing copyright in photographs."
