    is there an emerging standard dealing with copyright information for digital images on websites?

    is it only embedding copyright info in EXIF data or is there a snazzy microformat that deals with it?

    i'd like to be able to deliver images with varying copyright info to a webpage from a database (images stored in directories, metadata stored in the database). in xml i understand the methodology as its whatever schema i would develop but xml is out of the question for the project at hand unfortunately XHTML only.

    ideally something as easy as adding a <img src='http://…' copyright='blah blah ©2007' /> would do but validators choke on it as proprietary code. and i dont really want to be bolting on xml schema to the doctype just for this

    any thoughts or revelations?

    i set geolocation using an app that if you open google earth and navigate to where the photograph was taken from and drag the photo on it - it embeds the lat and long

    for everything else i use graphic converter at the minute - but only because i havent really looked for any others.
