Hi! If I bought some backgrounds would I be able to use them as the backgrounds of my NFT pfps? Wanted to make sure of that.

Hi, thank you for asking about this. Unfortunately, my answer is a big NO, I can’t allow this type of use. My assets were created with the goal of becoming part of more complex creative projects (such as visual novels, digital comics, etc.), and not to be used as components for the creation of other people’s digital assets meant for further sale and distribution. This type of use not only shares parts of my work with third parties, but also serves competitive purposes. So no, I definitely can’t agree to it. Moreover, since the crypto market has its own rules regarding digital copies, I don’t agree for my assets (or any derivative works based on my assets) to be sold/traded/distributed there. You’ll have to look for another artist to help you with this request, I’m afraid. Sorry. Rachel
Hi Rachel! Thanks for your response. I understand if you thought I was trying to sell the backgrounds themselves as NFTs but let me give you an example of how they would be used. Our anime girls would be the main focal point and the background would be to complement them. I loved your backgrounds and thought they would be a great addition. It seemed like fair use as a commercial project and we would credit you too but if you're still not comfortable then we won't do it. Thanks Rachel!
