My image on DeviantArt. Is this OK?

Dreamframer:
Hi everybody,
I think the girl didn't brake the rules, but I would like to double check here. My image from Dreamstime:



is altered and it's selling as print on DeviantArt.



Should author buy an EL for this image or not?

Regards,
Ivan

If he is selling it there (even modified), he is doing redistribution, and that is forbidden on all MS sites. Sue him.

Digital artists need material to create such work and often they don't make huge profits (if any at all) from prints - I would need more information about the girl before I got concerned - I actually enjoy to see art created this way and as long as she bought the image then I would have few issues.  Did she give you a credit for the photo?

I just checked her portfolio - she is using other images from Dreamtime and stating as such - can she then resell them I don't know - I hope so cause her work is really nice :)

snaprender:
What she is doing is redistribution/print on demand and it is not allowed in any of dreamstimes regular or EL licenses from what I understand in their terms.  I would contact dreamstime and let them know whats going on.

I would contact Dreamstime before I do anything
