Subject: RE: Permission To Use Art
 
   
Susan,
 
I'm delighted that you've noticed some of my humble creations and have taken an interest in them. The funny thing is: I really haven't a clue as to what signature tags are really, even though I have gotten many requests for using material in this fashion, but I do think I get the general idea.  ---and this is from someone who has been using computers since going online began. :) I guess I just use mine in different ways is all and get so buried working on new art that I lose track of what everyone else seems to be doing.
 
I am, however, glad that you've sought permission to use some art on a G-rated interface. There is just one little thing, though: I have gotten several thousand similar requests over the years, and among them, perhaps one in 500 actually names which pictures they like. That speaks volumes to me about the person in whom I am speaking, and it helps me get a clearer picture of what the public---in general---tends to favor. The art, after all, isn't about me, rather, it's about YOU!
 
You may use what you wish providing it's not any of the ones listed as SOLD OUT (in the Best Sellers section on my site inside the INFO DESK). When you see that, it means that someone has bought out their associated rights for public display, distribution or sales exclusively, and they tend to get a little antsy if someone is stepping on their toes, so to speak. Other than that, by letting me know what you like I can quickly say YAY or NAY by title, although most of them are under non-exclusive contractual agreements which don't preclude others from using them.
 
A link to my site would be much appreciated, and if you would, include my WHOLE NAME. Why? I think there are about 10,000 out there who have the same first and last name. LOL Also, if you cannot read the copyright date (i.e., year), don't hesitate to ask.
The live link is not an absolute, so don't fret yourself. It just makes it nice when it's possible because I welcome new faces
 
Lastly, I'm somewhat surprised how so many would take a liking to my art when what's shown online is so small, crude, and not even close to the quality of what the real deal looks like in person; but hey, I won't look a gift horse in the mouth either. 
 
I try to answer as many e-mails as I can, but it has become a full time job at times. So bear with me if I am slow to respond. And once again, thanks for sharing your thoughts and taking the time to write.
 
Creatively Yours,
 
JAC :)
