Greetings Ms. Thomas,
I was visiting your site and was admiring all your beautiful artwork. The faeries are beautifully done! I'm writing you to ask if you would grant permission to use your artwork for my non-commercial webgroup. It will be an honor if you let us use them for sigs/tags, websets and the like. The copyright symbol with your name will be affixed to any of your pieces that we will use as well as your link will be embedded with it. Many thanks.
Blessed Be.
Cece aka PurpleGoddess

> The way you embed my information is as follows: take the image into

>image that says © Nene Thomas. It doesn't have to be big, but it does have to
>be legible, and it has to be on the image not below it. This is so some
>unscrupulous individual out there doesnt take the image off of your site and crop
>out the copyright information. I would appreciate a link back to my website,
>but that doesnt have to be on the image, just on the page that the image is
>displayed on your website. Just having a link to me on the "links page" is not
>good enough. Once you have finished, please send us your web site address so
>we can add you to our "Friends of Nene" page!
