Default Copyrighting some templates

I made a template with some unreal tournament characters. Can I copyright this?

Yikes....

Probally not the whole thing, What i would do is check out to see if the characters are copywrited and go from there you might be able to protect the template minus the characters but im not sure how much good that will do you.

That would be horrible. The template is nothing with out the character. I'll check on their website.

U.S. Copyright Office
Is the best place to get it done but there are plenty of other companies that will do the work for you, for a fee!

Well as far as the layout and any logos you created you can!!!, as long as you created the logo or images and they are not based on any other characters another company already owns.

For example if you used images from another website or the web that are not royalty free, or are copyright by someone else. Regardless of the creation you cannot copyright them if you used them to make something, like a template or some sorth of advertisement.

You are better off trying to create something on your own.
