Yeah, I decided to put my stock rules in a seperate file instead of copy-paste them under every single pic :)

so: 

You're welcome to use my pictures from stock category for your creative work (photomanipulations , drawings etc). Just please follow a couple of simple rules :)  :
- I reserve the right to tell you to take down an artwork using my stock pictures (or ask you to remove my content from your work) if for some reason I find it wrong and you have to respect it - no negotiating about it - if I tell you to remove it you have to do it, even if something was not mentioned in my stock rules or you believe you didn't do anything wrong.
- don't put me or my face together with adult content. I don't pose to act, nude, semi-nude, underwear sexy or vulgar pictures so obviously I don't wish to be put together with such content.
- don't use my pictures for any hatered expression (race, gender, nationality, violence, animal abuse etc) - If you do so, I will report it to the administration. 
- let me know when your artwork is ready - I'm eager to see it :) I really don't bite, I love seing all those artworks :) 
- I save myself the right to request you to take down an artwork if it's violating the rules (if you are unsure about your work being apropriate just contact me :) most probably you don't have to worry, as the mentioned situation is really extreme)
- give the credits to the model (me) and those amazing people I work with (photographers , and sometimes make-up artists - whoever i credit under my pic)
- I give you my stock for free. You may not sell it or re-upload on other websites.
- for commercial use contact me privately (preferably on phoenixfire@wp.pl. ) - this will need mine and photographer's permission and shared profit.
- book covers - you're welcome to use my pics for book covers designes as far as you do it for free. If you want to sell any of designs including my stock - see the point above :)
- I had this issue many times and you can be sure I'm very sensitive on that one - do not use my face, clothes, accessories, body parts , hair on other models, don't stick other face to my body - I work hard on making my costumes and would prefer to see them only on myself. If you hate my face (well don't worry, I am aware of the fact that my face is not preety) then sorry you have to skip my stocks, it's sort of a deal , stand my face for being able to use my costumes ;) you might call me narcisstic, but that's the way I am and I use modeling for expressing myself. Please , respect it
EDIT: this also applies for painting completly new face from your imagination, putting animal heads, covering the face completly. Imagine someone took your manipulation, uploaded it somewhere without credits and cut out your watermark- that's exactly how it feels ;)  

- you can use my stock as pose reference for traditional arts etc.
- have fun using my stock! :)
NEW UPDATE 11.10.2016 : 
- My stock pictures are all MODEL STOCK (unless I upload it to different category which anyways is very rare) therefore their main aim is to be used as MODEL STOCK. It means you are not allowed to delete me from it and use the background, props, landscape, items, architecture, animals etc. etc (ANYTHING from the picture) without my body (and face...) on it. I reapeat, it's NOT background stock. it's MODEL STOCK.  


Don't worry, I really don't bite - I just had too many not nice situations of people using my stock and cutting me out of it. If you stick to those rules I won't mind anything.

NEW UPDATE 03.07.2014 : regarding using my pictures as reference:

- all my pictures can be used as a referenc for your artistic work (traditional or digital paintings/drawings etc, sculptures and any other form of art that I forgot to mention :) ) , no matter if they are in stock folder or not (BUT photomanipulations can be done only on pictures from STOCK folder! do not misunderstand :)
- simillar as for manipulations, don't use my pics as reference for works including animal cruelty, sexual abuse, pornography,child abuse, hatered to any group (race, nationality,religious beliefs, sexual orientation etc)
- you sell your work based on my picture as a reference in any way you want, as long as it's not a photomanipulation or work using exactly the picture (in other words - you can sell your drawing etc as long as you painted it yourself, not when you just put some photoshop effect on the picture itself)
- if you use my picture as a pose reference, it really doesn't have to be me you are drawing :) you can change the hair, dress, even face , it can be your OC or some fanart or anything :)

Hey do you mind changing your skin coloration? I just want it to look like it's from a specific region.
