I make a lot of bases, and all of them have the same two "rules;"
credit me, and no commercial use, both of which are kind of a given. But I realize some people may be uncomfortable with a lack of guidance, so here are some specific questions you may have.
1. So when you say "no rules," you really mean "no rules?"None. Frankendoll, frankenbase, redistribute, recolor it and share your recolors, make a base using parts of my base, use it in a dollmaker, etc. As long as I get credit/ a link back, I really don't care.
2. But WHY‽ Everyone else has rules. YOU used to have rules.It's a long story, but I have been recently shitted upon by a long series of unjust misfortunes, all traced back to rules and authority. Now that the system fucked me and my life is
O V E R, I now rebel by taking every opportunity to do things the "wrong way," like opening chip bags upside down/ stepping off the walkways/ etc. JUST BECAUSE I CAN.
3. But is there anything you'd prefer I NOT do?Yeah. Creepy shit like inflation/enlargement/fur fetishes.
Please, pleaseee don't
4. How would you prefer me to credit you?On deviantART, type (without spaces) : iconhanacurach: : devhanacurach :
It will look like this:
HanaCurachOutside of deviantART, you can link to my dA,
my Tumblr... hell, even
my Instagram, though idk why you'd do that. As long as people know "Hey, this trash was brought to me in part by Hana Curach," I don't care.
5. Can you expand on "no commercial use?"Fake currency such as Gaia gold is fine, real money is not. I consider points to be akin to real currency, but as long as you notify me beforehand and donate some of those points to me, you can use them in point commissions. Also, I realize that some of my bases don't explicitly say "no commercial use," but they're still subject to copyright laws.
6. So, what's the bottom line?Getting credit (and, therefore, exposure) is enough thanks for letting you use my bases. I am an attention whore. All I want is attention. Love me.
7. Were you drinking when you wrote these?No. I'm having my pre-drinking glass of water. It keeps me from waking up with a hangover. I'm about to mix an "it'll help me sleep" cocktail.
