You can find complete information on my reasons for not allowing horse or wolf manips without permission in my journal entry here:
Horse and Wolf Manips: My thoughts and reasons..I am creating this journal as an explanation as to why I do not allow horses or wolves to be added to my premade backgrounds and do not allow my wings to be attatched to them without my prior permission.
Let me begin by saying that I have absolutely nothing against horses or wolves, both are beautiful, amazing animals, nor do I have anything against the amazing deviants that create horse and/or wolf art.
I really don't know exactly how to put this together...
To make my rules regarding this concern as simple as possible I have stated on each premade background and wing stock that I do not allow horse or wolf manipulations without prior permission, unfortunately, the statement is rarely read, if anyone has any suggestions as to how to make it more visable, please feel free to make them.
Why don't you allow your stock on horse and wolf sites?
I don't want the stock use requests that will come with my stock being there.
:bulleblue: Why? For some re
Line-Art Pasted on Stock
May I put your wings on my line-art?
No. Line-art/coloring put on top of a stock is not a manipulation.
May I put line-art on top of your stock?
No. I will not hesitate to ask that a 'line-art on stock' image be removed!
Things I do not consider manipulations and other No No's
Cropping, adding a texture, changing the hue/saturation/vibrance, adding contrast, adding text, and framing are not photomanipulation.
Images containing my stock must be submitted as one of these catagories:
Photomanipulation, Painting and Airbrushing, 3-D, Mixed Media, Tutorials. . This is
NOT negotiable. Got a question, ask!
No extreme blood and gore, hate, animal cruelty, or other things you think I might not approve of. When in doubt, note me.
