| Hi all!! These are my rules you must follow if u are gonna use my stock. Read them before using this stock. By downloading and/or using this stock, you agree to comply with my rules. If you fail to comply with my rules, I reserve the right to have you remove your work.  Following Stock Rules Isn't A 'Maybe'...It's a MUST! You must follow the rules that a stock artist has. :faq217: I am a little bit frustrated and angry at the sheer amount of people I have had breaking or disregarding my stock rules all together recently. My Stock rules are in this journal -FAQ: FAQ and *updates on commercial and web design useThis is a FAQ that I have been compiling for a little while. I get asked the majority of these questions quite regularly. If you see something missing that you would like to know just ask and I'll try and add it in. If English is not your first language, you can use Google Translate to translate and get an understanding of what my rules say. FAQ #217: What are "Stock and Resources" and can I use them in my submissions? STOCK CREDIT  Always credit me if you have used any of my stock (including WIP's and close-ups) with a DIRECT link. You MUST include a link to either my profile OR the artwork used in the artist description where you have used my stock:Preferably using : devcharligal-stock : without the spaces for =charligal-stock or : iconcharligal-stock : for  without the spaces.You may also use the thumb or link to the stock piece you used, or a direct link to my page (although this is not preferable). If you are unsure of how to provide a credit with a link to my page, please refer to this faq FAQ #81: How can I create links to other deviants, deviations, or websites? NOTIFICATION  You MUST notify me when you have used my stock (either by note or comment) providing me with a link to the artwork.COMMERCIAL USE All the info you need about commercial use can be found in my FAQ: FAQ and *updates on commercial and web design useThis is a FAQ that I have been compiling for a little while. I get asked the majority of these questions quite regularly. If you see something missing that you would like to know just ask and I'll try and add it in. Best way to contact me is with a clearly titled DA note. An untitled one won't be looked at as quickly and I only check emails once a week A word about using my stock for your website: If you want to use my stock for website banners, posters, backgrounds etc then you MUST still follow my rules and credit me as stock provider. You must link me to the image as it will appear on the website and the stock credit must be visibly placed near the artwork. There is a fee for these sorts of uses, see my FAQ for the pricing structure. POSTING ON OTHER SITES  You may post artworks containing my stock on other websites on two conditions.condition 1. A Stock credit is always displayed clearly near the image, include a link to my DeviantArt profile or to the image you used. condition 2. I am to be shown all pages where my stocks have been used in any capacity. If the website is not a predominantly English one please direct me towards the credit on the page. this saves me the time of using an online translator. NO RETOUCHES/INSUFFICIENTLY EDITED WORK You can use my stock for any form of art you can think of, traditional and digital painting, drawing, sculpture, photomanipulation/photomontage. You do not need my permission to use my stock within the bounds of DeviantArt. What you cannot use my stock for however, is for retouches (see retouches definitions) resubmitting as stock or a raw stock image, and nothing where the subject is racist, pornographic, sexist, or hateful in any way. (Gore, macabre and horror I am fine with. Bring on the gore!) It is important to note that your art must be that. Art. It must be sufficiently edited otherwise I will get you to remove the image as a breach of my rules. Example: Just adding a filter/colour/blur/high contrast/lensflare effect/black+white, just cropping the image, texture overlay or texture backgrounds, adding text just changing the hair/eye/skin colour, just editing out flaws (retouching) or adding pointy ears/teeth/a tail. Make it your own, otherwise it is still mine. Do not just change a couple of little things and leave my image pretty much intact - leaving the original sheeted background etc. Unless it's a painting, there should be no sheets after you've editted my stock.  Retouches of my stock are NOT allowed. What I mean by a retouch is when you are practising airbrushing/digital makeup/photoshop imaging effects, anything where you are just taking the image to practice making it better, but not doing anything else do it other than editing out any "flaws". Eg. In a portrait image, a retouch would be, doing nothing to the background, removing any imperfections on my skin, lightening the image, editing out stray hairs, changing the eye colour. Basically, airbrushing. I understand its value for magazines, but you can't use my stock for it. If you airbrush me as part of a photomanipulation piece (aka, a collection of stock images collaged together to make one whole image) I'm not going to say I will like the fact that you've done it, but you are allowed. Where an edit is determined to be too minor or simple a change from my original stock it will be removed. Do not just crop, add borders and filters, texture overlays or colour/saturation changes to my images. MEDIUMS YOU CAN USE MY STOCK IN  Feel free to use my images to use as drawing/painting/sculpture reference, photomanipulate, collage or create art. This includes drawings and paintings (both digital and traditional and 3d or sculpture too.) I want to see my images being used creatively and not just being retouched, its not enough of a change to the original photograph when only a filter, border or crop is made or added and it undermines the photographers work. I hope u understand. PRINTS  I allow prints through deviantart. You don't have to ask for my permission first. Please let me know when you have made a print so I can add it to my wishlist. If you wish to provide prints/merchandise outside of DeviantArt, please contact me first. CATEGORISING Do NOT post your photo-manipulations in the Photography gallery. Do not claim artworks featuring/using my stocks as photographs anywhereUNACCEPTABLE USES Do NOT use my stock in hate art, fetish and pornographic works. No feet fetish or vore will be tolerated and I reserve the right to have you remove your work if my stock is used in such a way.REDISTRIBUTION  Absolutely no redistribution of my stock in any form is allowed. The only place where my stock is provided is in this account and my other art account  EXCLUSIVE STOCK If you have received any exclusive stock from me, you may NOT redistribute it in any form.Please keep this in mind when u use my stock. Thanks, Nichelle So have fun with it   to all, Nichelle.Sisters in stock:       Art sister:  |

| Hi everyone, So even though I have made it fairly clear that i don't like people commenting about my feet (and the things they would like to do to them and how much they turn them on), I still seem to get a huge amount of messages from feet fetishists about this particular thing. I just want to make it clear: I would appreciate it if you didn't talk about my feet. It clearly says 'Don't talk about my feet' on my front page. I'm not into foot fetishes and would much prefer if my or my models feet were not the topic of discussion. I don't want to know if you would like to lick my toes, put milk on them, spray other questionable bodily fluids over them or smack certain body parts on them. Now, i am in no way against people having their own little fetishes... really I have my own quirky crazy fetishes... but if someone has requested they not be involved in such a topic of discussion, please respect their wishes. For example, I got this note the other day: 'Hi charligal, You have some really sexy shots and I have to say i am so turned on by ur sexy feet. I want to dip them in chocolate and lick it all off before i cover them in my hot juices. I would love to speak to you on a more personal note so please give me ur IM details so we can chat more. Your pretty little feet have me so hard.' I mean really?? How the hell could anyone think that this is an appropriate thing to say to someone you A. Barely know B. Has a boyfriend C. Is not interested or into this fetish This is just one example of many i could give you about this particular thing... I receive notes and messages like this way too many times a day and it really makes me quite uncomfortable. Feet are just out of bounds in general when you speak to me and I would really appreciate it if it could stay that way. Just felt I needed to get this out there so I can attempt to minimise the 20+ messages I seem to receive about my feet every day. Now you know, please refrain. Thanks, Nichelle |
