HiWhen using the corel capture on the web is it legal or is it an infringement committed
I would say it depends more on what you intend to do with the image after you've captured it.
If you are making one copy for personal use, and not putting it in a public place, then nobody will know and it is unlikely they would object even if they found out, though they could ask you to destroy it.
If you are using it as part of a design, then it makes no difference whether you captured it from the web or obtained it by some other means -- making multiple copies of anything, or using it for a business purpose, requires permission from the owner. That does not change whether you copy it using Capture or paint it in oils etc.
But as far as I'm aware, unless the copy is used in a derogatory manner or for a business purpose, only Disney is likely to prosecute for a single copy infringement.

George it's nice to know, what was corel capture developed for.
It has been around a log time, And I just think it was made in case I went off on the Wild side and needed to be brought back. Probably for the net or other programs that you may need a peace of it.
