IMAGES@ARTIST-AT-LARGE provides five types of licensing:
Personal Image Use, Blog Image Use, Project Use, Full Image, and Book/Magazine/CD Covers.
The site pricing scheme varies depending on the type of camera used and the image size. Lesser quality cameras are priced as less expensive than better quality cameras. You will notice this when you open up your shopping cart.
Note on Editing Purchased Images:
If, for some reason, you need to edit an image – crop, lighten, darken, place an overlay, vignette, etc. – you may do so with the permission of the photographer.
Use of images in other than Personal spaces must be credited to:
Name of Photographer | IMAGES@ARTIST-AT-LARGE
