Asher's Ownership

I. TERMS OF SERVICE.

When purchasing a design/character from me, such as Annies, you are buying partial rights to a specific character design belonging to my Closed Species.

The official design artwork is still my copyright/intellectual property. I have the rights to use the design, its original artwork form for promoting myself and my artwork. Example: Posting it on social media, making and selling tangible items featuring the original design or produce artwork with the original design included for things such as prints, events and artbooks.

♣ You may give the design a name, story, Alternative Universe to live in, etc, for personal use. ♣ You may alter the design, such as giving it new clothes, hair styles, gender, body type, skin colour etc. but you may NOT change the features that characterise my species. ♣ You may convert the Annie to another species, if permission from the other species owner persist. ♣ Even if the Annie is converted, the original design and it's Annie form will always exist. ♣ Even if you alter the design, the original design will always exist. ♣ You may not use Annies name commercially. ♣ You may trade the design away for other designs. ♣ You may sell the design for equal to or less than what you originally paid. ♣ You are allowed to make a small profit of the design. This includes small scale merchandise sales such as prints, buttons and charms. ♣ If you are planning to use the design for a comic, manga, visual novel, game or anything alike, a commercial fee of 300% of the original price must be purchased. ♣ For selling and trading, you must always notify Yamio who the new owner is, to prevent fraud. ♣ Co-owning a design is allowed, if both parties have an agreement. ♣ Both parts must pay 50|50. This is to assure nobody feel like they own it more than the other. ♣ The first time you use your design (such as in an artwork) you must credit Yamio for the species. ♣ Credit for the species further on is recommended to prevent confusion, but is not required. ♣ The design may be used in events, books and other merchandise without interference of your ownership. ♣ All designs and likeness may be used in official Anniverse events and competitions without your permission or interference of your ownership.

I retain partial rights over every Annie I sell, and therefore I have the right to ban a person/redistribute ownership over a design if they are blatantly breaking my Terms of Service and therefore terminating their rights to the species. This includes, but is not limited to;

♣ Selling/offering/auctioning and/or buying an Annie for more than its original purchase price/value. ♣ Harassing other members of the Annie community. ♣ Scamming/theft of Annies. ♣ Unacceptable/rude behaviour towards partner(s) in a co-ownership of an Annie. ♣ Unacceptable/rude behaviour towards people in the Anniverse community. ♣ Slander of the Anniverse. ♣ Filing a refund/chargeback (results in a reclaim of the designs from the user to make up for lost monetary damages. The buyer is then forbidden from using the reclaimed Annie(s), and further use will be considered character theft and copyright infringement) ♣ Failing to pay me/someone else for an Annie in either an auction or a trade/sale.
