All the stock images on this account will have explicitly mentioned in the description that it is "Unrestricted stock", with a reference link to these "Terms of Use". If an image does not have this stock-info in the description, then it is NOT STOCK
These are the general terms of use for my STOCK images only.

If there is anything exceptional or specific, it will be mentioned in the deviation description. So
always keep to the terms of use in the art-description FIRST!
In case of doubt, just ask! ;)


Terms of use for my STOCK images
Main thing is that I love it when people enjoy and use my work - and if you do so, please do let me know! I appreciate comments, :+fav:s and suggestions very much! :)

:bulletpurple: You can use my stock images as is for personal use, on websites, journals, blogs, newsletters etc. A link back to my main dA page steppeland.deviantart.com/ next to the pic is necessary.
Please do not redistribute my pics, nor claim them as your own.
Unaltered use of my stock for commercial purposes is NOT allowed. If you want to purchase my images, please contact me.

:bulletpurple: You can also use my stock images for any creative work, for personal and commercial use, and you can post your own creations using my stock inside dA and outside. You can make prints of your own work using my stock, no need to ask permission.
Please give credit where possible, with a link back to the original stock photograph (or pack)

:bulletpurple: Only: Strictly do not use for very dark or macabre art, for work or on sites promoting, hatred, violence, pornography, racism,  or in ways/ sites that can cause harm to children

:bulletpurple: I love to know when my work is used, so I really appreciate if you let me know, and send me a link back to your deviation or other work. Again, that is not a necessity. But if you do, I will gladly :+fav:, comment and/or add a link to your work, so that more people can see it :)
If you let me know, do it preferably by comment on the original photograph/ artwork, or by note. A message on my main page will easily go lost :( ...

:sun: Further, just enjoy, and add beauty to the world :rose:!
I will thank you for it! :bow:

Underneath comments were replies on my very first Journal Entry, which now can be found under Journal 2.
I replaced it there in order to have a free page for my stock rules :)
