Many of you have contacted us showing interest on how to automatically mark your images with the rigistration number together with Safe Creative’s logo. We are right now working on a module that will do this, but in the meanwhile you can download this .psd photoshop file to mark the images manually. Hope it’s of some use.

Safe Creative is a copyright registry trying to give value to a new paradigm of content creation.
This new paradigm, is our belief, means that the best way to actually protect contents is to be able to deliver together with it information about author and rights that might interact with any program or service maybe on a semantic web way. An online registry is what actually does: Serves information. The more accurate and the more accesible the information the better the protection or “safer” the travel of contents through the Web.
We don’t mean to “protect” meaning not allowing copy, but instead to be able to deliver enough information together with the content to dissuade plagiarists as they realice content is registered and can be tracked and at the same time ease legitimate reuse of it. Doing this for free, of course, is something that might socialize and standardize content registration in the future.
I think this is just a beginning of a new era of digital services, and we are working on some technologies to provide deeper and stronger content identification together with some tools to fairly spread knowledge of those contents. But we are under development of these technologies.
On the other hand, right now our efforts have been conducted to achieve a strong and good content storage and authoriship claim proof. This proofs can be easily used on court if necessary. We are also starting some collaborations for content tracking through the Internet.
If we understand that right now the biggest risk for contents is not to be able to achieve awareness about them, giving tools to allow a safer spreading of them in the Internet is the clue to find the minimal protection needed to ensure those contents will not fall into deadly oblivion.

Bulk registration has been conceived to register several works at the same time, however it can be used to register individual works step by step. Registering individual works is convenient if you are handling big files.
Important: in massive registration the work’s name will be the name of the file without file extension. Eg, If you are going to register a text file and the title is “My Novel” you have should name it “My Novel.txt”.
1.- The first step: logging in.

2.- Once logged in, you will see your registered works list (if you have some) and two buttons: one to register a single work and the other to Bulk Registration. Click on Bulk Register button.

3.- In Bulk Registration section you will see the Registration Templates list. This templates are useful to identify the type of work you are going to register. In you have no templates or neither one of the them adapts to your work, you can create a new one. In the case you want to use one template click on the Bulk Register button. For this tutorial purposes we will create a new template.

4.- Fill basic and required fields in the Registration Template for the specific work type you are going to register.

5.- This is a completed template. Click on save to finish.

6.- When you save the template, it will be visible on the initial list of templates. Clicking on Bulk Register button will show a new windows. If you see a message about no possibility of verify the certificate’s authenticity click on “Trust”.

7.- In the new window you could click on the plus symbol (+) you will see on the lower left corner or drag and drop the files you want to register.

8.- As soon as you drop the files into the window the uploading to Safe Creative will begin.

9.- Once the files uploading finish you can go to the Registered Works list and see the files you just uploaded. Here you can edit or add tags, modify descriptions or change titles. Notice that the system will take as title of the work the name of the file without the extension. So if the uploaded file is “My Novel.txt” it will be registered as “My Novel”.
