regarding usage of my artwork..

Journal Entry: Fri Dec 9, 2011, 4:44 PM
I sometimes get questions about this and I've also seen some of my drawings floating around the web (especially the Vocaloid fanarts)  

Personally I'm not super strict about letting people post my drawings, but here are general guidelines:

- You may repost them to other websites, forums, etc. WITH CREDIT (except for commissions. Please do not repost those unless you are the commissioner)
- You may make website layouts/banners from them, WITH CREDIT, but it would be really nice to let me know beforehand. (unless the piece you're using is a paid commission. Please DO NOT edit those)
- You may NOT sell my artwork without my permission (or any kind of commercial usage, really)
- You may NOT claim my artwork as your own
- You may NOT trace my artwork
(etc.)

Kind of common sense but I hope people will follow these rules! Thank you very much!

Why don't you let people post their own commissions? I mean if they had the creative idea for them, doesn't that give them the right to like post them on their own page or something BUT WITH CREDIT OF COURSE. I mean you're doing the hard work, but I don't understand. Wait, most people don't get commissions done of original characters. So does it still apply for original characters? I'm confuzzled.

Oh, of course the commissioners are allowed to use their own commissions. That line only applies to random people who DID NOT pay for the commission! Only the person who paid for the commission is allowed to use those works. I should rewrite that to clear it up haha
