	I have a question of legality that hopefully some of you are familiar
with.  I am not sure which news group to post this to but since it is for a
game and I read this group commonly I will post here.
	Scanned images...  If I color scan an image of say Big Ben am I going
to get in trouble using it?  What if it was from a post card?  What if it was a
photo I actually shot?  I have some images of the inside of the Vattican and
Rome in general.  Can I use the images freely or what?  I mean they are things
 so can they be subject to use in like a game??? What is the legality of
scanned images... What if I alter the image or change the color scheme?

	Hopefully someone is familiar with this type of perdicament and is
willing to speak of it...  		THANKS
