Thanks sharen

*..restrictive licences...

Obviously for fan art stuff there has to be restrictions, but generally I agree. It's a PITA to wade through stuff. Thats why mine take the same general terms. Basically do what you like as it's not sold/call it yours. Plus if ever theres any doubt I say contact me, I rarely refuse a request.

Also does a licence really give any protection? I've once found a few of my freebies on a blogging site and the artist was calling it theirs. Wouldn't have minded him releasing it through his site, but he was deep linking to the files as well.

*"So would you want people to credit you even if they(me) are still learning?"

• Regardless of skill a credit is always nice, but it shouldn't be given automatically. Apart from vanity searching :) I think where a credit helps the most is gives other people, to see where something came from. Often I've seen something cool and thought I'd like to buy/download that, but theres no info.

One of my biggest annoyance is when you get a freebie or a product, often you don't know whats in it!  So now I try to include a small picture called sample.jpg

Pinky - you left the lens cap of your mind on again.
