LOCK-335

Notice: user-made terms are not binding, unless you have provided an electronic signature to the designer in question. You are responsible for obtaining and recording the version of the terms you agreed to.

• All my designs by default have a no commercial use clause. If you wish to use my designs commercially, please contact me and we can discuss royalties. 

• I prefer to sell to toyhouse users, and in a case in which a buyer does not have a toyhouse account and does not want to make one, I will hold the character in storage in my own. If this is the case I must be kept up to date with the current owner, and if that owner has a toyhouse account, they will be traded the character. This is to keep permissions and credits in order. 

• Do not delete and then reupload the original character profile on toyhouse. This is to keep the ownership log and credits in place. If you are moving accounts, transfer the character. If I find you have done this I will blacklist you. 

• Redesigns are completely permissible and, unless a Closed Species, do not need to be passed by me.

• Please ask my permission, or at very least let me know, before converting a design of mine into a closed species, or into a different one. I would ask you to respect my wishes if I say no, as I am uncomfortable with my designs being associated with some species. This doesn’t apply to removing a character from a species, but you will still have to officially notify the species admins. 

• Reselling is permitted, provided you paid for the character in the first place. Reselling above the bought price is only permissible if additional art is purchased (with provable evidence, if you wish to resell please keep a log with receipts)

• Make any form of profit from my designs and you will be blacklisted.

• While not mandatory, if you keep your characters hidden I ask to be at least list authorized so I can keep tabs on the character. In the case of Lockette, Dextroluma, Kipitin and Mediborg designs, authorizing the official toyhouse accounts is more than enough.
