  • By default, anything you say or make is copyrighted - that is, attributed to you. People must acknowledge that you made or said it. If you really want to go official, you should seek the US Patents and Copyrights office. However, if you are making something that is already copyrighted by somebody else, you don't have a copyright on it yourself. For example, if you were to draw a character design somebody else had made, you don't own that character, they still do. You can't make an avatar containing the character of your favorite show and say it is copyrighted. That's not how copyrighting works. Copying somebody else's own work doesn't generate another copyright.
