[QUOTE="Willie, post: 1696811, member: 303546"] A customer has asked me to develop a web template for them that incorporates the images of celebrities. I know that he does not have the legal right to use these images. Am I, the web developer, responsible for how he uses this website, if a celebrity decides to sue him? So far I have made him sign a document that indicates the following: 1) I (developer) believe that this customer does not have the right to publish these images 2) Customer agrees to hold me harmless should a lawsuit arise. 3) Customer acknowledges that I have specifically warmed him NOT to publish the images. However, I did go on the use these images in the web template design before handing it off to him. [/QUOTE]
