Thommy , the local expert.. can you show me any definition in American law that states transfer of authorship? lol..

Regarding transfer of copyright ownership:

Even if some common law jurisdictions limit author's Moral rights.. That still doesn't change the fact who is the author of the work... because authorship can't be transferred.

In USA this protection is applied to visual arts.. (pantings etc.) ..so even in Anglo-American law you still have particular rights to your visual work even after you had transferred copyright ownership. This doesn't change the principle of authorship cause this is totally different subject.

Author is the creator and always will be..

Go cry now
