Character Permissions
Design Terms of Use
GENERAL:
-I retain rights to the artwork and intellectual property.
-I may use the design as examples in refs or in a portfolio.
-I reserve the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason, including but not limited to: suspicious accounts with no ties to the art/adopt community, newly made accounts, porn accounts, etc.
-Purchased characters are yours to roleplay, write, imagine, and draw and commission.
-Please don't change the trade permissions. It is annoying to change the permissions back to normal.
- Please do not remove TaterTotVenom tag on my designs
BUYING:
All sales are final.
no refunds
TRADE:
Trading is allowed for designs in pretty much all scenarios! Please make sure my username gets to the hands of the new owner if not mentioned on the file.
GIFTS:
You may not resell gifts unless new art is added to profile. Trading terms are between the gifter and giftee, and the politics of this is to be kept between those 2 people, I do not want to be involved!RECOLORING/EDITING:
You can recolor or redesign my designs you bought, but please include the original design + credit to me somewhere on the character’s page. You may not sell the un-edited design as a separate character.
You can NOT turn my designs into closed species. Closed species go against my values and I find it very disrespectful to use something I designed as a blue print to profit off of. (I have no PayPal so you can’t give me a cut of the profits even if I wanted it.)
REPOSTING:
Reposting a design you own is fine as long as you link my Instagram @Tatertotvenom or my Toyhouse - just typing it out doesn't cut it, it has to be linked!
do not repost designs that you do not own!
CO-OWNING:
Co-Owning designs is allowed. However the politics of that is to be kept between the co-owners and I don't want to be involved outside the initial agreement of who is purchasing the design.
If trading/reselling/etc a co-owned design, all owners must agree to the trade. You cannot trade "your part”! I've had too many issues with people not letting others know the design is co-owned before trading, and its generally just messy.
COMMERCIAL USAGE:
-All copyright agreements are negotiable.
- You can NOT use my designs in Studios and mass production.
-Designs purchased may NOT be used for profits (merchandise, charms, turning them into closed species, published novels, games, etc).
