Viewing my site means that you have read & agreed to the following:

PICCY CREDITS

OK, unless otherwise stated (and credited) all the CATS photos on this site are ones I have scanned myself. I might have the same ones as a few other sites due to mutual sources but I DID NOT STEAL ANY OF THE PICS I AM USING FROM ANYONE. I am using them for no commercial purpose.

If you would like a photo, e-meow me and askpolitely, I will more than likely send you the file as long as credit, in the form of a link saying where it is from, is given. This credit needn't be huge banner reading "OBSIDIA, EMPRESS OF THE NET, HAS EVER SO GRACIOUSLY GRANTED ME PERMISSION TO USE THIS BEAUTIFUL PHOTO AND FOR THAT I WILL BE ETERNALLY GRATEFUL TO HER FROM HERE ONWARD. SHE RUNS AN ABSOLUTELY SPIFFTASTIC SITE, MUCH BETTER THAN MINE, WHICH YOU CAN GET TO BY CLICKING HERE: ~OBSIDIA'S JELLICLE JUBILEE~". I mean c'mon, a little consideration is NOT difficult nor is it to be demeaning in any way. It can be as simple as a breif text note either somwhere on the page, or your "Credits" page if you have one, like "The picture of (such & such) courtesy of Obsidia's Jellicle Jubilee" with a link. OR you can use the graphic below along with a note of which pictures were from me; just cut'n'paste the code:

Also, the bonus in notifying me is: if it is one of the bordered or altered pics, I will send you a cleaner version so you won't have to deal with all the junk that would be there if you just yoinked it.

GRAPHIX:

Once again unless otherwise stated and credited, all graphix on this site (yes, I am AWARE that not all of them are priceless gems of visual design, but I still put work into them, ok?) are my own work, please don't take them. They are designed specifically for my site and its purposes. I will not give permission for them to be used on other sites. However if you would like help or advice on graphix for your own site all you need do is ask, I'll see what I can do. I'm not that scary, am I? For examples of some graphix I've already made for other sites, look here.

ART & WRITING:

Under NO circumstances is my art &/or writing to be displayed, distributed, or reproduced without my WRITTEN PERMISSION, kapeesh? I'm tired of dealing with it. It's MINE. I conceived it, I spent the time to work it all out to look right, I drew it, lined it, colored it, whatever-ed it. I came up with the plot, I developed extra characters & named them, I was the one up until the wee hours of the morning pounding away at the keys to complete the writing. Mine. I take this very seriously and will not tolerate it. I'm probably sounding very egotistic by this point but I just can't stress this enough, & I've had a lot of trouble with it in the past. Possibly the reason I've had these problems is that I did not make clear enough my conditions.

CODING:

All the coding on my site is done "by hand" , & while I find the thought ludicrous, I have heard of code-thieving taking place. Now I know, & you know, how stupid THAT sounds, & actually doing it would just be ultra dense, so please, hands of my code, thanx. Snoop around all you want, I learned much of what I know from sources, but don't go cutting & pasting big chunks of it.
