MtA Scrap Kits - TOU Change

There has been a change in the TOU for scrap kits at MtA and you can now use the kits with any artist as long as there is not a conflict with the artist or the company that represents them.

MtA TOU

MtA ScrapKit & Accessories TOU

The following is Mistaken Art's Basic Scrap Kit Terms of Use. These terms apply to all graphic hobbyists being signature tag makers, stationary and web set makers, website designers and MySpace or other social network users. You are required to read, understand and abide by these terms. You are advised that these terms are strictly enforced at all times by MTA and our Attorneys.


The Scrap Kit Designers represented by MTA reserve the right to amend any of these terms they so choose. You will be updated of Changed TOU via the artist group. Please check the group files for Individual TOU information.

When you use your scrapkits alone to make a tag, stat, etc. , please credit the artist. You will be able to use the license number you were given for your tubes to mark your tags, stats, etc made with your kits from MTA. you can credit them on stats and tags by adding something like this:

Scrap Kit / Elements "designers name here"

- only add copyright © when its NOT mixed with another artist, and used with other art that doesn't require credit.

If you use MTAs scrap kits with any other licensed art, that requires a number outside of MTA, please credit as follows.

Scraps by " scrap artist name here " - MtA Scrap Artist

This credit is sufficient on footers, and tags alike.




Basics:


1. You MAY resize, re-color, add or subtract from the elements to suit your personal project needs.

2. You MAY create tutorials using MTA scrap kits however you MUST very clearly state on the tutorial page that the scrap kit you are using is for example only. Anyone wishing to use the same kit in their own personal creation MUST purchase the kit from MTA.

3. You MAY use MTA Scrap Kits to create tags, MySpace or Website layouts, stationary and or any other personal digital projects that are applicable. You must also then, put a link to the artist, and your license number. If you do contact boxes, you need the © and license number b/c they can be snagged.

4. You MAY NOT use MTA scrap kits or any elements contained within them for any commercial endeavors, barter or used for profit in any way when you join a Personal use group. The only images available for commercial use, are found in our commercial use section on our site. Please do not mix your commercial and personal use license.

5. You MAY NOT print MTA scrap kits.

6. You MAY NOT share MTA scrap kits or any elements contained within these scrap kits in anyway be it via email, disk, file sharing site or any other known methods of file sharing. no exceptions.

7. You MAY NOT make your own templates, presets, shapes, brushes etc. from the elements contained within MTA scrap kits. That means the shadowed images as well.

8. You MAY use MTA scrap kits with MTA or FTU artists images, tubes or photography you wish as long as it does not conflict with the terms of use as designated by the source of the art or photography you are using in addition to the scrap kit.

MtA Freebies

Did you know that Mistaken Art has lots of freebies?

You will find a list of the current Free To Use Artists HERE. Free images are regularly given out for tagging competitions too. (My Sunset Tag won first place in a recent competition.) For the month of December a free taggers sized Christmas kit by me is also available to license holders, see December Freebies.



To access the freebies all you have to do is apply for a FTU (free to use) license with them. "How do I do that?" I hear you ask lol. Well it is very simple!

From Mis -


We are going to start doing FTU License numbers.
We only have a few requirements for this .


You use YOUR number.. And YOURS alone.

You have to be a Member of this group. You can be on Special Notices if you like. Which may be one email a month.
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/MTATaggers/


It WILL be tied to your Personal Use license number, and your commercial use license number either if you have it NOW, or if you get it LATER.



If you do not have a license number.

Go to our group Database for FTU License Apps.
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/MTATaggers/database?method=reportRows&tbl=3

Add your Name and Email Address and Yahoo ID. Please Be sure it is the Name you have on your MTA Account so we can link it if you purchase from MtA. If you have a problem posting it, I will get it from you in a reply email after I send out your license number.

I will contact you. Please approve messages from mis.mistakenart@gmail.com and mystee.mistakenart@gmail.com We will not resend bounced emails. We will have hundreds of requests come in, so please be patient. We work on a volunteer basis,and try to do FTU updates twice weekly LoL. Mystee and I do everything by hand, so we ensure its done right.

You will Need this number for the following reasons.

To use your gifted, unique images you win at MtA
For any FTU artists you plan on using that sign with MtA.
If you purchase at MtA please reference to this license number.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you have a PTU or CU license number.
Our licenses are listed like this
Pay to use - MtA-Pxxx
Commercial Use - MtA-Cxxx
Free to Use - MtA-Fxxx

Please apply an " F " in place of the " P " on your license number to represent a Free to use image or artist.

--------------------------------------------------------

If you have any questions you can email Mis or Mystee at the emails given above. You will also need to register an account at MtA as the FTU artists licenses are distributed via the shop.

Making Paper Rolls For Previews

This is how I do the paper rolls.

You Will Need:

MuRa's Seamless Stripe of Cylinder Filter HERE.

1. Create a new canvas and copy each of your papers to it as a new layer.

2. Apply the Stripe of Cylinder filter to each paper layer at default settings but change the number to the number of papers you have.



3. Use your selection tool to select the parts of each layer that you don't want and delete. I do it this way because you may want to pick and choose which parts of the patterned papers are displayed in your preview. Alternatively you can just move your layers across so that each paper shows. Once you are satisfied with your papers, merge.

Christmas Shapes

I have been teaching myself how to make preset shapes and I have some Christmas Shapes for you. These were made in PSPX and I have no idea how they will translate to other versions so if anyone can let me know that would great!

I have included the three sample tubes in the download for those that don't have PSP or in case the shapes don't work for you. The % sign on the preview is the size of the tube and the black shape is what the actual preset shape looks like. Have fun creating!

I have made a little extra to go with the Bright Christmas Kit. It includes the tree base and decorations on separate layers, all coloured to match the Bright Christmas kit.

I also have some Personal Use Element Packs available at MtA. They are mostly the same as the Commercial Use packs only resized smaller and at a lower resolution for online use only. You can use them as accents for tags with any MtA artist or free to use artist as long as you are not in conflict with the artists TOU or on any of your personal online projects. They cannot be used in scrap kits or for anything you want to sell - you need to buy the commercial use version if you want to do that.

Each pack is $3. Click on the preview to shop at MtA -

* You MAY create tutorials using my scrap kits BUT you MUST give credit and a link to my blog is required. Tutorial writers are allowed to upload my kits as part of supplies.

* You MAY use my Scrap Kits to create tags, MySpace or Website layouts, stationery and or any other personal digital projects that are applicable. Credit is required on your layout, stationery, etc. If you do contact boxes, you need the © because they can be snagged.

* You MAY NOT use my personal use scrap kits or any elements contained within them for any commercial endeavors, barter or used for profit in any way when you join a Personal use group. There may well be a Commercial Use version of the kit which will contain better quality images at larger sizes.

* You MAY NOT print my personal use scrap kits. They have a low resolution and don't print well - see if there is a commercial use version.

* If you want to share my free kits, please direct people to my blog so that I can keep track of what is popular and what isn't from the number of downloads.

* You MAY NOT make your own templates, presets, shapes, brushes etc from the elements contained within my scrap kits. That means the shadowed images as well.

* You MAY use my free scrap kits with PTU or FTU artists images, tubes or photography you wish as long as it does not conflict with the terms of use as designated by the source of the art or photography you are using in addition to the scrap kit. If you are using only the scrap kit for your project, please add my copyright information - ©Elizabeth Hartwig http://bluebird-ddu.blogspot.com/.

* You MAY NOT claim these resources as your own. The copyright for the resource remains with the person who originally created it.

* A credit in your Kit TOU with a link to my blog. Credit is not required on your project but it is a good idea to include a TOU with whatever you create so that people using it understand any limitations there may be.
