As far as I'm aware noone owns copyright on GP files, as they are just one person's interpretation. But yeah lets see what the mods think!
The ball is in your court Andrew! |

As Uncreator has said please hold off posting any files until the mods have had a chance to discuss. Thanks guys.

I fail to see how a GP file would be any infringement on any one's intellectual property rights. Lets be serious, 9 times out of 10, they're wrong and you have to fix them yourself to get the song to play right (at least I do anyway, sometimes the positioning is a nightmare). While I might personally agree with that, it really is more important what the courts regard as copyright infringement There have been incidents in which websites have faced legal action over tabs, and none of us want that for GMC. We are still discussing this and I think we might be able to come up with a compromise of sorts, but lets see. -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

Well, they closed down my songbook site for copyrightet material. I think it cannot be done.
PS Nobody need to put a GMCs reputation on a line because those zip fles can easily be found on various places on the net. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

And here is the final conclusion ...
GMC does not want to take the risk of directly hosting the tabs for the legal reasons mentioned above. Rodnator, if you want to make the tabs available to GMC users, that is fine, but please do it in the following way:
