Payment:
- I require ALL payment upfront before I send ownership and the design itself over to you.
- This includes art payments as well.
- The HD unwatermaked PNG file of the design will be privately sent to you once I receive ALL payment
- Any prices listed are in US Dollars (USD).
- I accept Paypal and Venmo as methods of money payment.
- You may OTA (offer to adopt) if allowed in the design's post, for what you believe can make up the monetary value of said design. These include:
- art of equal/greater value
- It's up to you to decide how much your art is worth but PLEASE don't overwork yourself, just offer something reasonable!
- Existing designs/characters for trade
- Custom designs
- art of equal/greater value
- I can hold on to a design for 72 hours.
- For art payments, I can hold on the design for up to 2 weeks.
- I'm a bit more lenient with this so if an extension is needed, please let me know
- I DO NOT accept refunds for adoptables that are already claimed.
- I also DO NOT allow take-backs on offers if you have already drawn the design before paying for it.
Edits:
- You do not need to ask me about editing my designs. Once you own the design, you may:
- simplify/make more complex
- redesign
- change gender/presentation/pronouns/species/clothes/story/name/colors/etc.
- If you redesign the design completely or change their form/species (i.e. animal to human), please still credit me as the original designer.
Reselling & Retrading:
- My designs may be sold, traded, or gifted to another user.
- Please DO NOT sell the design for higher than the original price you bought it for unless you commissioned art of that design or have drawn illustrations of the design yourself.
- Gift art, traded art, and quick drawings/doodles/sketches you drew yourself do not count. Sorry!
- Designs obtained through gifting or trades cannot be sold unless they have commissioned art with them.
- These designs will be worth as much as the commissioned art they come with.
Usage, Ownership, & Rights:
- My custom designs and adoptables are meant for personal usage ONLY, not commercial nor mass media consumption.
- If you are interested in hiring me for freelance to design characters for your show/game/movie/book/etc. please contact me at [email protected]
- The design is yours to do whatever you want with it (for personal usage), just please credit me as the original designer. I am Geoledgy on toyhouse!
- You can buy designs for others. Please inform them of my TOS if you do!
- Please do not pester me nor the current owner of the design if you were unable to obtain a design you really want.
- If you want to co-own a design, that is up to you but please do not involve me in issues involving co-owning for any reason.
- Breaking the rules, depending on severity, may result in a warning or blacklist.
- 3 warnings = blacklist.
- If you are blacklisted, it means you cannot obtain new designs by me and will be barred from trading with another user for a design by me.
- I really do not care about existing designs you possess like...you can keep them.
- I retain all ownership of the artworks I created, and may use them for my personal purposes such as, but not limited to, galleries, portfolios, etc.
- I do not, however, claim the design I drew as my own, once I have transferred ownership.
- Please do not tamper with or repost my designs that you do not own
- Please remember to give proper credit!
- If you're unsure whether or not if I have a certain account on a site to link back to, just link back to my twitter @Geoledgy or ask me.
I guess that's really it for now, I'm not very strict about how my designs are used honestly cuz that's not my business...If you have any questions or concerns, please ask me.
Thanks for reading!
