Terms of Service
The content on this page will change without warning, please be sure to read through periodically. This page is seperated
into several sections, a general rules section which is followed by graphic specific rules. The page concludes with a small
guide of crediting at blogging communities and a few notes. Be warned, this page is somewhat lengthy.
General Rules
1. Redistributing ANYTHING is a big and complete NO.
2. Claiming anything here as yours is another nice, big NO.
3. Editing any nonvisitor intended graphic, say the avatar on the Webmisstress page or the layout header, is not allowed.
Taking the current layout's entire source code to edit is not allowed but taking small, read 15 or less lines, of coding is
acceptable.
4. Direct linking is unacceptable
5. Feel free to use anything as a source of inspiration provided that what you plan to make will not look exactly or
alarmingly close to the original.
Icons
1. Credit is not required unless you use more than 5 icons collectively.
2. Use of these icons to make your own graphics is absolutely forbidden. You may add your name if you like but that's the
cut off on editing.
3. This may seem picky, but notify me if you plan to use any icons at blogging organization like Blogger or Xanga.
4. This may seem picky as well but DO NOT use ANY of these icons at Gaia, Myspace, or any site that,
for one reason or another, does not allow you to state the source of the icon in a constantly visible place.
Layouts
1. I must be credited but you may move the credit line anywhere you like. It may be placed on every page, the main page, a
credits page, or any other page as long as the placement makes sense. Placing the credits in a news entry that is soon
engulfed by many other news entries is not allowed.
2. Provided that I am still credited and there are no drastic changes that render the layout completely unrecognizable from
the original, you may edit anything from the source code to the CSS to the layout image.
3. Using the layout image to make your own graphics is not allowed unless you use it with the original or slightly modified
layout and then provided that you plan to use the layout for at least a week. Using the graphic once you have taken the
layout down is permitted providing that you followed the one week rule.
PNGs
1. Do not cut off part of the PNG, put it on your site, and claim it as yours. I spend a very long time on each PNG, please
be considerate.
2. If you use the PNG for something small, say a button or one icon, crediting is not necessary. If you use the PNG to make
5 small graphics or more, a banner or more, a layout or more, and/or a wallpaper or more, crediting is required, no
exceptions.
Small Community Crediting Guide
Livejournal: Please place <lj user=mono_berry> in the icon comments
Similar Blogging Communities: Mention Shanghai.Doll in the keywords, link if possible
Forums: Visibly link Shanghai.Doll in your signature.
Notes
1. Crediting no matter what with icons would be much apreciated.
2. Dropping a comment on the tagboard mentioning and linking to the location where you are using the icons is nice, I want
to see my work in use!
