London, UK – London based technology company Pixelrights becomes Member of the British Association of Photo Libraries
Pixelrights Limited today announced that it has become a member of the British Association of Picture Libraries ( BAPLA ). Pixelrights is the parent company of SmartFrame, an innovative new, secure online image technology. SmartFrame is designed as a seamless replacement for the traditional image format, offering users both protection and unprecedented control over their online content preventing both casual and deliberate online theft. It offers a fantastic user experience and new revenue channels for all photographers and to picture libraries. Copyright awareness and attribution has often been widely ignored since the launch and development of the Jpeg format in 1992 and it has taken until now for a company like Pixelrights to develop this ground breaking technology.
“We recognise the important role that we can play in helping BAPLA members fight against copyright infringement online in a smart efficient way as well as helping picture libraries and managers of large and small photo archives new revenue streams” says Pixelrights CEO, Robert Sewell. “We are genuinely delighted about becoming part of the BAPLA family and look forward to working closely with all members”.
