You would need to alter the index.template.php file, down towards the end where the copyright information is.

I put my copyright information in that area. Where exactly did you put yours?

Here's what mine looks like.


// Show the "Powered by" and "Valid" logos, as well as the copyright. Remember, the copyright must be somewhere!
echo '

<div id="footerarea" style="text-align: center; padding-bottom: 1ex;', $context['browser']['needs_size_fix'] && !$context['browser']['is_ie6'] ? ' width: 100%;' : '', '">
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"><!-- // --><![CDATA[
function smfFooterHighlight(element, value)
{
element.src = smf_images_url + "/" + (value ? "h_" : "") + element.id + ".gif";
}
// ]]></script>
<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center" width="100%">
<tr>
<td width="28%" valign="middle" align="', !$context['right_to_left'] ? 'right' : 'left', '">
<a href="http://www.php.net/" target="_blank"><img id="powered-php" src="', $settings['images_url'], '/powered-php.gif" alt="', $txt['powered_by_php'], '" width="54" height="20" style="margin: 5px 16px;" onmouseover="smfFooterHighlight(this, true);" onmouseout="smfFooterHighlight(this, false);" /></a>
</td>
                           <td valign="middle" align="center" style="white-space: nowrap;">
            <span class="smalltext">All material ÂÃ,© 2002-' . date("Y") . ' morethanspike.com, unless otherwise noted. <br>

                                        ', theme_copyright(), ' <br /><span class="smalltext">', tportal_version() , '</span>
                                </td>
<td width="28%" valign="middle" align="', !$context['right_to_left'] ? 'left' : 'right', '">
<a href="http://www.mysql.com/" target="_blank"><img id="powered-mysql" src="', $settings['images_url'], '/powered-mysql.gif" alt="', $txt['powered_by_mysql'], '" width="54" height="20" style="margin: 5px 16px;" onmouseover="smfFooterHighlight(this, true);" onmouseout="smfFooterHighlight(this, false);" /></a>
</td>
</tr>
</table>';


Just to be clear, my text is
<span class="smalltext">All material ÂÃ,© 2002-' . date("Y") . ' morethanspike.com, unless otherwise noted. <br>

If you can wait, there will eventually be a way to have a block at the center bottom of every page, but I don't know when it's going to be implemented.

Glad to help.

When the center bottom block becomes available, I intend to remove that from the index.template.php file and put it into a block. This is only temporary.

That would be cool, this way you don't have to update all your index.template.php files like I do.   :o
