1)
Autumn Star graphics may only be
used for a personal web page, small business
(no more than 4 employees with annual
gross income under 150K) or a not-for-profit
web site. Any party using the graphics
may not use them in the engagement of
creating pornography (soft or hard core),
promotion of violence, prejudice, racism
or offensive material as defined by reasonable
standards.
2)
Graphics from the Autumn Star Domain may
not be used in ANY type of collections
for distribution either for free or profit.
Autumn Star.com has sole distribution
rights.
3)
In the event of use on a web site, linkware
means that a small, hyperlinked, credit
should be offered at the bottom of each
web page incorporating Autumn Star graphics;
the hyperlink should be to Autumn Star.com
or Autumn Star's Gratis Graphics.
4)
Graphics must be saved on your own hard
drive and uploaded to your own web site's
host server for online use.
Please
do not steal bandwidth. Download each
graphic to your own harddrive and refer
to it in your pages as located on your
own web page host server.
"Stealing bandwidth", along
with the unauthorized collection and redistribution
of free graphics, is an unkind thing to
do to the many nice people who offer their
graphics freely to the public. It's also
illegal!
We
are also inviting you to discover the
exceptionally beautiful graphics available
at AlfredoM
Art Studio. Authentic Renaissance
and Medieval Illuminated Manuscript art
has been painstakingly hand-drawn in digital
form and made available on CD. Now, you
can illuminate your own manuscripts, invitations,
cards and letters (including email) with
these gorgeous borders.

We've
heard of companies that steal graphics
from internet sites, collect them on CDs,
then, sell them to the public or include
with company software. This is being done
without permission from, credit for and
compensation to the original creative
artists.
We
have even heard first-hand accounts by
artists/photographers describing how ,perversely,
the most reknowned software corporations
have engaged in such theft even while
loudly complaining about pirating of their
own software.
Should
you purchase a CD and discover any of
Autumn Star's Gratis Graphics designs
on the CD, please contact us with the name of the
company and the CD. Your kind assistance
in such matters will be greatly appreciate |
