FAQ #81: How can I make links to other deviants, deviations, or websites?
FAQ #217: What are "Stock Photos" and can I use "Stock Photos" in my submissions?

You may post artworks containing my stock on other websites on two conditions.
condition 1. A Stock credit is always displayed clearly near the image.

condition 2. I am to be shown all pages where my stocks have been used in any capacity.

Do not ask before off-site use - just be sure to credit and link me.

Do not use my images as layouts or avatars, or as part of website design or logos without my expressed written permission.

This isn't a rule, but if you do use my stock and sell it as prints, I'd love to have one.

I'm going to start printing some of my favorite images for a personal book and I'd really appreciate it if you could send me a large format version of the art you've made. Or a dA print. I know most of you aren't selling what you create but if you've got the time, and the file, I'd love it if you would send me a copy. Again, I won't be selling or showing them, it's just for me. And my family. My mom gets a kick out of what you guys do.
You can send it to sidelongstock@gmail.com

Hey, guys. I've got a favor to ask you - If you're going to put the dA watermark on the full size view of a picture you've done using my stock, could you send me a copy of the file first? I don't want to be a very demanding stock provider, but I save the images you make to a collection that I plan to print out someday and the giant watermark is pretty horrible. I only plan to do this with images featuring my stock, of course, and I totally understand the need for a watermark - but I would like a nice copy for myself. You can send the files to sidelongstock at gmail dot com. Again, if you're not adding the dA watermark, don't worry about this.

Backgrounds and textures are restriction free. ONLY backgrounds and textures are restriction free and they are clearly labeled. I'd still like to see what you do with it and I can add it to my faves, but it's not a rule. Do whatever you want with the stuff.
All model and animal stock is copyrighted to me and you have to follow my rules if you plan to use it.
Thanks very much!

Thank you, *faestock, for letting me copy a couple of your rules. You're much better-spoken than I am.
