Terms of Use

Sorry... time to read the small print

The free downloads on this site are for non-profit/personal use only. For business and commercial projects you must buy a standard or extended commercial license (see bottom of page).

When you download the free sets you are automatically bound by the following terms:

You may re-distribute free sets for download on your own site or blog, but you must mention Mel Rodicq Creative, host the zipped set on your own server, link back to this site and not take credit for the designs as your own.

Please make sure that you specify that the graphics are for personal use only (link to the license page here)

_________________________________________________________

You can use the free personal use graphics for:

  • Personal blog designs
  • Personal artwork
  • Gifts
  • Design work for charity (though contact me first please)
  • College or schoolwork
  • Artwork for community/fundraising events
  • Education (in schools, for worksheets/posters etc)
  • Other uses that do not make you or anyone else money

You can’t use them in any work that will make money unless you buy a license. For example..

  • As part of your business web site
  • Commercial graphic design for yourself or a client
  • Web site templates or commercial blog themes for re-sale
  • Design portfolios
  • Commercial blogs (blogs that support a business or sell advert space)
  • Corporate logos and branding

Commercial Use

You can buy a commercial license for the free sets from my shop. When you check out, specify which graphics set you would like to license, and enter your name and business name. The sets cost £4.00 each to use commercially and covers you for up to 500 impressions.

Standard licenses

The standard license is limited to a maximum of 500 reproductions, whether in print on online. So if you use a design for digital scrapbooking sets, for example, you could only sell a maximum of 500 copies. If using the designs for print, you could for example, only print 500 copies of a flyer, CD cover, magazine etc.

Extended Licenses/ Logo licenses

For high quantities of reproduction (over 500), you can either buy a standard license again (thus adding another 500 impressions), or you may buy an extended license.

For print/tangible/web goods:
Unlimited reproduction, or use of the designs for business logos is £100
Resale licence is available in some cases, please contact me for more info

Remember that you are buying a license to use the design, not the design itself. I retain the copyright to the work. Please contact me about extended licenses, stating your full name, address, and the usage you require. design.
