The Official Art Usage Form

Recommended Posts

Before using or editing DC art, please read this topic.

 

For on site permissions, please see the artist agreement. This will answer questions as to how to obtain permissions to edit a sprite.

 

Remember that asking permission is always a courtesy, even in cases where it is not necessary.

 

Artists may change their forms at any time, so please check back any time you need permission for something.

 

Please note this means: If an artist has not given permission for the type of edit you wish to make, you must contact an artist for permission before modifying their art for use on the DC forum. You must contact an artist before modifying their art for possible use in the cave (ie updating shading, adding alts, etc.). If they do not reply after 30 days, permission is granted by default. This applies to avatars, signatures, updating concepts, suggesting alts, etc.

Do note that especially if you are suggesting editing an in cave sprite (such as updating a sprite or suggesting an alt - even suggesting a hybrid), we are likely to ask for proof that you've asked permission. Be ready to give us a screenshot of a PM or chat or link us to a dA conversation or however you asked/received permission.

 

You may not submit shop merchandise without the permission of the artist.

Anything that you may make a profit off of you must obtain artist permission for first.

 

You may use non-edited general use DC sprites (cropping or changing the image size is allowed) on the DC forum without asking prior permission. However, please ask permission before using spriter alt sprites. Spriter alts are a special treat for the spriters and should be treated as such.

You are allowed to create and post fanart elsewhere (such as dA), but you must credit DC and the sprite artist/s. Many artists love seeing fan interpretation, so you might PM the artist anyway just to share.

 

Due to the nature of secrecy in releases, this permission is only for in cave art. Only artists/conceptors of an in progress/completed request may display the submitted art on DC or elsewhere. Do not use art from submitted requests that are not in cave unless you are an artist for the project.

 

The collected forms are in alphabetical order. In Cave artists who have sprites on the Completed/WIP lists will not be listed under Completed/WIP Dragons to save space. The artist names are also color coded to make distinguishing them easier. Green stands for In Cave artist (this post) and Red stands for Completed/WIP artist (this post). You can find the artist of a dragon at the bottom of the dragon's view page. You may also find artists and concept creators listed on the fan-run wikia on a dragon's individual wiki page.

 

If you have submitted art to Dragon Requests, you may fill out a form for this topic.

If you have had art accepted to be released on DC or have art already released on DC, please fill out one of these forms at your earliest possible convenience.

In Cave Dragons

Off Site Use Yes

Edits (including recolors) for Avatars, icons, banners, buttons, etc: Ask and link back to ostwyn.deviantart.com

Use of pixel version in merchandise: No.

Use of derivative versions (drawings, etc) in merchandise: Tough one. Ask me and I'll tell you.

 

My policy is that if I collabed with someone on a sprite, you need all artists' permission. If all I did was a line tweak, recolor, or shading tweak, it's THEIR sprite, not mine, I just gave a suggestion. If I spritelined their drawing and they did everything else, it's still THEIR sprite, not mine. If I drew or shaded the sprite, it belongs to whatever artists worked together with me and myself. I have had my art stolen before and I'm a bit touchy about it.

In general, art on site is my gift to DC. Because its use affects others now, I don't consider it fully mine and so give pretty much all permissions for it its use.

 

This doesn't apply to stuff that happens to be lying around on my dA or on the forums elsewhere though.

 

Artist: Verridith

 

Off Site Use ONLY with permission. Posting fanart on dA is fine!

Edits (including recolors) for Avatars, icons, banners, buttons, etc: Notification please.

Artist: Vicats

 

Off Site Use Not without permission.

Edits (including recolors) for Avatars, icons, banners, buttons, etc: No recolours, no animations. Please contact me and show me where graphics would be posted so I can ascertain that my art isn't being used in an environment where it could reflect negatively on me. (No sites with mature content, bad reputations, or potential illicit activity. I get to judge what that is.)

Use as is fanart/avatars: Same as above.

Edit for fanart/avatars (recolor, crop, scale): No recolours, no animations. But if I've given you the go-ahead for the site, then other editing is fine.

Use of pixel version in merchandise: No. No profit shall be made off of my art without my permission.

Use of derivative versions (drawings, etc) in merchandise: Same as above.

 

This information is subject to change and it is your responsible as the user to keep up to date. I will not maliciously toggle my permissions, but if I become aware of circumstances that can harm me, I will take action to avoid them.

 

Vicat's Edit: ALSO! If you see someone violating these permissions, or suspect someone is violating them, report them straight to me rather than attack them yourself or send moderators after them. Vigilante art-justice online can be an extremely stressful situation, especially if someone is falsely accused. So come straight to the source, rather than cause more anguish than it's worth. (Yes, that even means leave blatant thieves alone. I can handle those myself, too.)

 

Artist: Wynni

 

Off Site Use These dragons were designed for Dragon Cave. Therefore, only Dragon Cave related permissions, please.

Artist: Dusky_Flareon

 

Special: Any Spriters Alts I ever do are only for MY and DC's usage. No one else. If I commissioned you to draw a Spriter's Alt, you may NOT host it on any site that has forum/works like dA. Only things like imgur, tinypic, or Photobucket.

If I worked with someone else on a sprite, refer to the stricter permissions for what you wish to do and contact anyone who wants to be contacted.

Credit me for a usage of a sprite I worked on.

You may NOT use WIP/completed list dragons I worked on till they are in-cave.

Artist: edwardelricfreak (aka Eef or Sci)

Also, if there's anything that has other people who worked on something, please ask them, too, not just me! I usually do sketches for things so contacting anyone who worked on redlines/sprites would be nice.

 

Contact Info: PM on the forum is usually good. My deviantART is Edo-Wonka. If you don't get a reply in a few days from either location, I'd say Skype is the best (jara_is_sci-sci). Please only use Skype as a last resort, though!

On site or on this forum I don't mind you making siggys, banners, avatars, fan arts, etc. If offsire then I request that you give me credit wherever you post it. Also, don't call the design/sprite/concept your own.

Sketches/Spritelines: I will draw sketches/sprites for people. In that post I will say who, if anyone, can spriteline or color it. Usually, I like to do these myself as well as fixing mistakes unless I am colabing with someone. If I only shaded the sprite, don't bother asking me for permission.

TJ has permission to use my concepts/sprites for merchandise on or off the forums. I will need to be contacted and provide permission for anyone else to use my work for profit offsite. If it is a collaboration then you much seek permission from all those involved.

Artist: Spelunker

 

Spelunker's Note: Guys, if I seem harsh or if I appear to be overreacting, it's because my arts are like my babies- ALL MINE. >:D I'd prefer to retain absoute control over the things I have created. Generally, if you're decently competent at banner making, you're a-OK. I'm only putting the "removal" thing on here in case some horrible monstrosity crops up that I can't stand.

Oh, and if I ever go inactive on the forums, and people want to update my stuff, go ahead I don't want to have people cutting each other down over "Yes, she intended to do this!" or, "NUUUUU, but the old arts and history... ;A;" If any of my artist friends are still around by then, they can tell you what my stuff generally looks like. Also, always try contacting me by email if, for some reason, PM doesn't work. My DA is Spe1unker, if you want to pester me there. :B

 

Art Editing Special Note: Hot on Fire, PieMaster, Sextonator, RheaZen, Rhynn Collins, and all in-cave artists have permission to mess with my stuff without asking me in the event I go inactive. I trust them to do a good job. If I don't know you, I'll probably want you to PM me before posting your edits so I can make sure you did well.

 

Off Site Use No, sorry. :c This may change later, but right now, I'm not on the internet a whole lot of places. I'd prefer just to eliminate usage problems in the simplest way possible- a blanket ban. The only way this would change is if you're a close friend of mine and I give you the OK.

The one exception is fanart. Fanart is fine, as long as you link back to my forum profile and credit me.

 

 

I reserve the right to change any of the information here without warning. If you want to ask me if I'll make an exception to any rule for your case, PM and email me. If I can't be contacted via PM, then all of my rules hold firm.I keep a running list of people who can edit my stuff w/o permission in my profile. If you edit my art (even one tiny pixel of it) without my express permission (profile list = permission) I will immediately report you to a moderator. I don't care if you're new. That's not a valid reason not to know how things work- the rules are posted for everyone to see.

Updated!

 

You may notice that the list of artist and conceptor credits is now GONE. These were very long posts that were hard on mods to keep updated and only made what is already a long thread that much longer to scroll through. However, I changed up the OP a bit, so it should be easier to find the section that mentions where to find credits at. As well, I also added a link to the wiki for these purposes.
