Who owns the copyright to this site and to the content? That would be us, Tanya Symons Bredehoft (tsb) and/or George Spicer Bredehoft (gsb). All rights to all our original images and words are reserved by us. The limited use license for all legal uses of the images and/or words which are viewed on or obtained from this site is detailed here Occasionally there may be images, sounds, and/or words posted to this site which are the works of others. These works will be duly attributed and tagged with the appropriate copyright notice and, when possible, linked to the creator of the works. faq copyright index What are the basic uses for content on this site? View them, download them, enjoy them (or not), and post them - UNMODIFIED - to your own site as long as the images are indeed unmodified, are linked to the home page of our site, are properly credited to us, and include the proper copyright info. Please do not directly link a tag on your site to an image or page as the address is likely to change. For a review of the details of the limited license one has agreed to by entering this site click here. faq copyright index Why are there limits on the use of these images and words? A good question and the answer to which is found in the balancing of multiple issues. First is that we want to share our work with prospective clients as well as any others who may appreciate it. Second is that we have spent our lives-to-date learning how to create these works. Creating images and words - conveying thoughts and ideas - is our livelyhood. Third is that we feel it is less-than-fair for people to take shortcuts at other's expense and/or to claim credit for that which is not theirs. See point two. Fourth is that if we do not make an effort to protect the rights to what we have created, we will have, by the lack of such action, diminished the right to call our creations ours. Fifth is, just like everyone else in the world, we need to eat and a place to live. These works are central to our generating an income. If someone takes them, calls them their own, and/or uses them in a fashion other than what is allowed in the licences we grant, that someone is jeopardizing our livelihood and is therefore endangering our lives. faq copyright index What will we do to protect our copyright? Protecting our works starts with establishing the limited licenses for their use. These licenses set what we believe to be reasonable and reasonably enforceable usage guidelines. In terms of determining what is a non-licensed use... As an example, while we do license some our work for other's specific-project content-creation purposes, we do so with a specific agreement, for a specific image, with and for a specific client. So, if an image of ours were to show up as part of someone's work whom we don't know or as some part of a project not specifically covered in an agreement, it is rather easy to deem the use as being non-licensed. For details of the limited licenses, click here It is our hope and intention, that with these reasonable guidelines, which are easy to abide, people will treat us reasonably and not steal our livelihood. The far shorter answer is... we will do whatever it takes. :-) faq copyright index Site Content License Anyone visiting, viewing, or downloading data or files from this site (the user) attests that they have read, do understand, and fully agree to the following...
