can't fit my credit on the item you are selling, please
email me for instructions on how to give proper credit a
different way. If I don't have your particular use listed
here, please don't assume it is okay. Email
me first and ask. I am normally very flexible and eager
to see my artwork used for many different purposes. See
#8 and #9 below for exclusions.
5. Although I do allow my
artwork to be used on items you make and sell, I do not
allow mass producing of items made with my artwork, or selling
the items to stores for them to sell to the public, without
a binding contract. By mass producing I mean that you are
not allowed to produce items (with my artwork on them) on
a production line for the purpose of selling in stores or

online graphics are free for personal use only. Personal

to use my graphics, either by registering to use my already

on your webpages if you are

and intend on using it to create
custom printed items for your customers and need to show
them samples of the artwork they can choose from, you are
required to also follow these terms:
You may not place images online any larger then thumbnails
created at the size of 50 pixels by 50 pixels, for customers
to look through or choose from unless they each have the
word SAMPLE written across them. This is so the images can't
be saved individually from your webpages to be used by those
who may just help themselves to it. Please protect my work
and your purchase and don't make it easy for people to just
take the images for themselves. You may use my samples,
found on different product pages throughout countryclipart.com
on your pages to show your customers the custom choices
they have to choose from.
You may also make your own sample charts where you show
several of the images together on one or more image files,
write sample over each of the images and then have your
product id code under the images. Custom sample charts
are not provided and you will need to know how to create
your own. The following copyright/credit statement is required
