Can you patent the appearance of a webpage using a design patent?

Yes, provided the design is new, non-obvious and ornamental (as opposed to purely functional) I disagree The patent law states: 35 U.S.C. 171Patents for designs Whoever invents any new, original, and ornamental design for an article of manufacture may obtain a patent therefor, subject to the conditions and requirements of this title I would advise my client that your webpage is already protected by copyright law. A person should do a quick search of design patents to see if other patents have been granted on web pages. There are plenty of utility patents on webpages.

A webpage most likely would not be seen by the USPTO as an articles of manufacturing. Hope this is helpful.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
