Last Edited: 03/21/2021

General Rules

I don't like drama. 😑 Period. To put it frankly: I'm too old for that bullshit.
I reserve the right to refuse sales/exchange to users. I do not refuse lightly.
If I feel you are being rude or abusive to me or anyone else requesting one of my adoptables, I will ban you from my page and I will refrain from future sales/exchanges.
I am not obligated to put up with misbehavior or inappropriate remarks. Artists are people, too.
Online art is not my primary job, I am not always online 24-7. Please leave me a note or message.
All forms of harassment will result in my banning/blocking you from my account/social media. I don't want to deal with that anymore. 😡
If you make a scene and start posting accusations because you didn't get your way, I will refuse to sell you anything ever again.

Line Art

Do not sell my pay-to-use/free-to-use bases as-is or as part of a collection of bases.
Do not claim my unedited bases as your own original work!
I don't police who and who doesn't own my pay-to-use lines, but please do not distribute bases you've purchased from me out for free.
My line art that is pay-to-use or free-to-use is intended for adoptables, original characters, and for personal use role play.
NOT for commercial use! Do not include my line art in comics/illustrations/publications intended for commercial use!
Credit is not always required. If you'd like to credit/share, please do!

I reserve the right to refuse/ignore requests that are not done in the manner I asked.
I use Paypal for all money transactions.
If I cannot understand your question/comment(s), I will move on.
If you do not respond to a question I need an answer to within 24 hours, I will move on.
Do NOT give me money for an adoptable/line art before I have approved.
Crossposted adoptables (adopts posted on more than one site) are sold based on who requests first, I use timestamps on comment posts to do this to the best of my ability.
Owner gets full PNG without marks/background.
Owner will get character Transfer from Toyhouse to their own account upon purchase.

If you REALLY want to use something commercially, just ask me.
I can not grant you full rights to something on a base that I do not have the rights to.
If I colored and edited a base that wasn't my own creation, I can not grant you full access to it and you will have to go to the base artist for permissions.
Owner can assign any lore/history/relationships to non closed species adoptables obtained from me without having to ask me.
Owner can port designs/colors to other bases/creatures. I don't claim to own any color combinations or patterns used as markings on adoptables.
Owner can completely change the character design and still call it the same adoptable, just credit me for any and all works/lines/literature that I created.
I actually don't care if the adoptable is ported so dramatically that it's unrecognizable from the original, all I want is credit for the work I did.
DO NOT alter/draw over/photomanipulate my lines/completed works without credit.
Referencing is fine, just state that you did so. Just please credit.
Cropping is fine if you need it to fit your profile CSS. Just please credit.
Please follow closed species TOS, whether the species belongs to me or not. I am really tired of the drama. If you do not agree with those terms, do not buy!

As of September 19, 2019 you are allowed to resell and retrade your owned adoptables that I've made for the same price/value you purchased/traded them.
You are in charge of what or how to price additional art you purchased for said adoptable. I can't police that nor would I even try to.
If you do trade something I've made to someone else, please let me know so I can update it on the "Sold" section of my gallery/-ies on FA/DA.
If you've traded on Toyhouse, I cannot and probably will not give you the art for that adoptable as it now belongs to someone else.
If your adoptables have been stolen, please report them to the admin of this site.

Freebie Rules

Please only ONE freebie per person, per week. That keeps things fair.
Please don't use alt accounts to cheat.
As of Mar 21, 2021 I will block/blacklist anyone who deletes Freebie character pages after I've transferred it to them.
That's suspicious activity, as that page contains all credits and rules for that character and its art.
Owner gets full PNG without marks.
Owner can choose character prefs, pronouns, gender, etc.
Owner can port designs/colors to other bases/creatures.
Please credit where applicable.
First come, first serve.
Please don't sell my Freebies. Please don't profit off my free work.
Be nice!

I can ONLY use the information you give me! 📣📣📣
I am not psychic, please include any and all references you have available.
If you ask for something but offer no references, I will draw something that I feel is appropriate for the piece.
I only use Paypal for real money exchanges.
I reserve the right to refuse certain requests.

I no longer accept Deviant Art points. 👈
As of March 2, 2017 I will hold pets for a maximum of 48 hours (I will use the post's timestamp for this).
After 48 hours, an adoptable will be open again for someone new to purchase it.

My emoticons are free for personal use on and off Deviant Art for journal decorations, forum posts, etc.
My emoticons are not intended for applications, programs, or games intended for sale/profit/commercial use!
For those who know/have editing skills, I give my permission to recolor my animated gifs to match your aesthetic(s).
You can use my animations on Blingee/Giphy or similar apps/programs/filters.
Please credit me for the original animation when posting to a gallery.
