Usage Policies & Copyright Information

Images

Blog Photography from Other Sources

I use only images that are free to use for commercial sites using attribution or non-attribution. Many of these images come from Pixabay. I often give attribution even when not required. If my post itself does not include the source, my media gallery has it in the description.

If your image is here and you wish to have it removed, please contact me with the URL of the post/page where it appears and proof that you have copyright of the image.

My Webcomics

Images from my webcomics are drawn by me.

If you wish to use one image in order to promote my site you may, but it must include proper attribution:

Image copyrighted to Kristina Van Hoose.

A link to the post where you found the image is preferred, but a link to my site in general is acceptable too.

You may not use these images on your own site if you are not promoting my website.

Photographs that are taken by me

They will eventually appear on my site. When they are uploaded, I will amend this area with the terms.
