Let me first say that I greatly admire your work! I am a member of a PSP Group . We make signature tags , pages for our group and many other things to acheive better skills in Paint Shop Pro and because we enjoy using such great art to help stimulate our creativity.

This being said, I would be delighted if you would grant permission to me and the group I am in --------------------fill in----------------to use your artwork for the following non-profit purposes: To alter the images by cutting out the background but leave the main image intact (referred to as tubing) and/or feathering the edges of the art work but I am also interested in using them with the background intact if you don't allow tubing. To add animation such as sparkles or glitter. To make websets for use solely within our group. To use stock photo images in conjunction with your work. The stock images will be labeled "photo courtesty of..."

Our group prides itself on being copyright compliant. You should know that as a copyright compliant group, we would require that anyone using your artwork include your copyright information as well as your web address. We would also include a link to your site on our artist permissions page. We would be more than thrilled to add you to our group if you would like to keep a closer eye on the use of your art. As of right now we are a new group growing and we plan to have other artist join us in the future.If you'd like I can make a test signature tag and send you the finished result for your inspection If it does not pass your inspection, I will delete the image and it will not be used.I thank you very much for your time and consideration. And please, if you have any questions regarding this request, please feel welcome to ask.

Yours Truly,
