commercial use


Basically, anything that is NOT ART PRINTS or a MAGAZINE/ONLINE FEATURES where there is money in any amount being made or being exchanged is considered commercial use and must be worked out with me before the time is released or the stock used. 



***If you are an artist and wish to make a manipulation/ drawing/ etc to sell it as an art print (under 1000 copies) I allow this without need of permission. If you wish to have your finished piece featured in a magazine. I also allow this as long as you contact me first. I reserve the right to decide if an image is manipulated enough from the original to be sold as a print.

Book covers are considered commercial use, and must be worked out with me in advance.

Advertisement is considered commercial use. This includes instances where the stock is used as it, used to endorse or sell products, scrapbooking where the page is being sold, being used on webpages, being used as reference for an item to be ordered, etc.


*I reserve the right to change or add to my definitions of what is commercial use, as well as decided if the stock as been manipulated enough to sell prints.
