Question

Would I be commiting copyright infringement by taking screenshots of a computer game?

Answer 1

Not if you're using them for something like writing a review or even just talking about the game on your webpage.

If you used them as graphics for your own game, then yes.

Answer 2

No, so long as you dont try to sell them.

Answer 3

Depends on what you are doing with them.  If you are using them for anything other than for you to look at then yes you could be unless you had permission or if you cited them properly.

Answer 4

Depends entirely on the purpose for these photographs, if its for personal use then no, if its to make money then yes.
