I get many questions from people who want to use my photos somehow – I state they need my permission, but I am too busy to answer their notes and comments at the same time. Very stupid situation that is in fact a trap for all those who are polite and really ask for permission :(
 
That’s why I decided to create some general rules.

I hope they fit any situation you might think about, but if you get any idea, please, do not hesitate to comment!
 
Those rules will be also on the main page of my account and I will link to them through every of my new deviations :D
