All content on this website is copyright ©Juan-Luis Martínez, unless otherwise noted. I’ve made these fractal pictures and music files available online because I like when others enjoy them, not because I wanted to give them away. Art needs to be shared, but the creaator’s rights must be respected. It is that simple.
You can use pictures or music files for personal, non-commercial, use only. They can be copied to any medium or storing device strictly for non-commercial use. However, they shouldn’t be publicly displayed or broadcast (though I doubt they are worth it) without my consent.
If you intent to use anything for other purposes, particularly anything that could be considered commercial use, please contact me first. I reserve the right to refuse any request for any reason.
If you are interested in displaying one or more fractal pictures or fractal music files online (such as on a website, newsgroup, forum or any other online service, etc.), let me know beforehand. Again, I reserve the right to refuse any request for any reason. If and only if permission is granted for online use…
- Make a copy of the picture or music file you are interested in and host it in your own server.
- Do not link directly to my server because, besides being bandwidth theft, you could also lose access due to possible updates.
- Ensure the copyright notice remains visible and legible on the picture. If not, put it somewhere back into the picture or place it near to where it will be displayed.
- I also recommend to put a link back to this web site, or at least a small note giving proper credit.
Distribution of MP3 files is allowed as expressed above. These files contain ID3 tags with information about copyright and authorship. Ensure such information remains embedded within the file before distributing.
Do not alter the fractal pictures or music files in any way.
- Regarding fractal pictures: When I post one an image on my web site or anywhere else, it means it has attained its intended concept, so any modification (except for resizing) will compromise the original artwork. If resizing is done, please, make sure the copyright notice is still visible and legible. If not, either embed it back into the picture or place it near where it will be display.
