License?

I have finished a project and would like to include a license so that people don't redistribute, modify, etc. of the product. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Just the licence of any commercial product...?

I am selling it for free.

Heh.

Whether you're selling it or giving it away for free, what you're wanting is to protect your assets and application from being freely distributed, modified or sold by someone else.

I don't claim to be an expert about this - in fact I know nothing - but I think you need to display a EULA when downloading or installing the package, where the users clicks 'Yes I agree'. Additionally I would state copyright wherever you can, e.g. your software's title screen.

See Wikipedia's page on licencing:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_license

that deserves a place in someones sig.

LOL!

LOL, i like that. you will have plenty of sales then :P

This gives me ideas! The price for my game is ONE MILLION DOLLARS!! But you don't have to pay, if you don't want to.

Crap. I should check what I put before I post it.


Okay, thanks.

Basicly you only need a "Copyright by (insert name here) 2007 all rights reserved." message when the game starts, probably also in an additional readme.txt. You may however add an EULA, especially needed when there are special things like limited redistribution abilities.
