Commercial Web use of photos
If you
would like to use my pictures for commercial purposes, then please do the
following:
1. you should
send me email with a proposal. An exception to this is free publications
put out by non-commercial organizations; you guys can use whatever you
want with credit as above.
3. once
approved and payment is arranged (maximum US$50, often less, discounts
for multiple orders) I will email you the high resolution image, professionally
scanned, full size, file sizes 700k to 1.3mb.
2. register
the URL with me (sending email is fine)
3. add the
hyperlinked credit as above
If you would
like to distinguish yourself from the get-rich-quick artists looking to
make a fast buck off the Internet without contributing anything back to
the community and you feel that my photography enhances your site, then
please make a charitable donation to your favourite charity (and NO - charity
does not begin at home).
Note: remember
that most of the pictures of people on my pages are not model-released.
Advertising usage of photos (e.g., brochures, catalogs, print ads) is very
different from editorial usage of photos (e.g., newspaper and magazine
articles, books). You cannot use pictures in advertising (e.g., an on-line
product brochure or anything else that is selling) without getting a model
release from any person whose image is recognizable in the photo. You might
also have problems if an image contains a recognizable physical property,
e.g., Disneyland. One of the reasons advertisers pay $1000+ for images
from stock agencies is that those agencies have generally already gotten
the relevant releases and they send you transparancies of the images.
Bounty
If you
see one of my pictures in a magazine or a Web page and there is no credit,
then it is almost surely unauthorized. If you are the first person to tell
me about it, I'll send you a free print for your wall (value hard to establish,
but definitely at least $100).
Text and Stories
Please
feel free to redistribute for noncommercial purposes any of my writings,
but please don't break up documents (except by chapter) and please attribute
the source in such a way that someone can find the most up-to-date version
on the Web.
Use of photos and Web pages
in print
1. screen
captures must be made from a computer with a 24-bit color video board.
(Machines with 8-bit cards produce distorted images and colors.) I will
supply high resolution images for reproduction upon request free of charge
for all non-commercial use.
2. the URL
must be legible in the capture or separately printed in a caption
3. a small
credit must be printed reading "Web page courtesy Martin Dabb
(jmdabb@bigpond.com)"
or "Photos courtesy Martin Dabb jmdabb@bigpond.com)"
4. send
me email informing me of the usage and/or Snail Mail a copy of the finished
item to Martin Dabb, Po Box 17076, Karori, Wellington, New Zealand.
there's a few recommended links here, but the above adverts may be more relevant for you.
