In Conwell v. Gray Loon Outdoor Marketing Group, Inc., 906 N.E.2d 805 (Ind. 2009), the court determined that the creator of the web site was the web site's copyright holder. Piece of America (POA), a limited partnership, hired Gray Loon Marketing to create and publish a web site for POA. In 2003, Gray Loon submitted a proposal and cost estimate to POA. This proposal and estimate included a statement by Gray Loon, stating that, "It is Gray Loon's philosophy that clients have purchased goods and services from us and that inherently means ownership of those goods and services as well." Even though POA requested a few minor changes during the design process, the web site was finished in December 2003 and paid for during the first quarter of 2004. Within a few months, POA again requested changes.
