my first question to all is:

is it good idea or acceptable to post on many websites? in regards to the same image?

ill try to explain myself the best i can...

Image A, post it on website A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z.

some sites offer special offers if you only sell on their site, why i ask.

also I'm not a lawyer, but any thing about copyright would help, or i guess i could look it up.

hopefully i explained my question well enough.

Hi Shawn,

Personally, I see nothing wrong with posting an image to multiple groups. Exposure is always a good thing for artists. I belong to a few communities and post my images on multiple sites. For sites that have special offers, I have not heard of those type of sites where one can only post on their site.

For copyright, if you use a reference photo, it's always good to try to get the photographer's permission to use the photo. If it's a celebrity, it's always a good idea to not use it. I have some drawings of celebrities but the drawings aren't being sold and are for my portfolio only. It's always good practice to not use someone else's photo or image without their permission. There's lots of great material on the internet discussing copyright. Great questions. I hope my responses helped in some way.

hello ok maybe i got (images) and (3d models) mixed up in the mix. for selling exclusively on their site. Or i think it was the pricing part, sell cheaper in their site.

as for copyright, i read a bit, i make mostly abstract art, so i dont have to worry much on that end. plus i learnt/ read not to use others material.

thanks for the reply laters
