Copyright
Copyright information, licensing and permissions. Guidelines for crediting DreDarkroom work when publishing or sharing it.
- Always put a clickable credit next to the image: photo by DreDarkroom.
- For print, use photo by DreDarkroom.com, and ask first.
- No credit possible? Get written permission first.

Crediting
Images are not watermarked, because a watermark detracts from them. Instead, please make sure a clickable link is included clearly next to any image displayed. If the image is being printed, the printed credit should be displayed slightly differently to a web credit.
Always get in touch first before printing (and if in doubt), as print cannot easily be reversed and improper use of material may leave you liable for damages.
How to credit
- Web: photo by DreDarkroom
- Print: photo by DreDarkroom.com
If it is not possible to add a clickable link, use photo by DreDarkroom.com on the web, but only as a last resort. At the very minimum a credit is required nearby wherever images are published. If a credit cannot be placed next to a published image, that is only acceptable once you have obtained permission to do so first. If the licensing agreement states that the right to be credited is waived, you do not need to obtain further permission.
Written permission must be obtained in all cases if an image is to be published, uploaded, displayed or retransmitted anywhere without a clear credit as described here.
