Can I use a graphic I purchase here as my company’s logo?
If you purchase a Commercial license, you may use an illustration as part of your logo, as long as the illustration is (1) modified and (2) not the dominant element of the logo. However, you must disclaim the asset if registering for Trademark protection, and you may not enforce any rights on the asset itself.
Can I use a graphic in my product’s label or packaging?
With a commercial license, yes. Since packaging counts as an End Product, the Commercial license allows you to create up to 100,000 lifetime packages. If you purchase the graphic under the Commercial license, your packaging or label must be significantly different than the original asset, require time, effort, and skill to produce, and not derive its primary value from the graphic itself. If the label or package is not for a commercial product but a personal project like a sticker or container, you are allowed to use a purchased graphic in this way under the Personal license.
Can I use a graphic on a t-shirt/mug/tote bag?
Yes, but special limitations apply based on your intended use. With both licenses, you can create unlimited non-commercial t-shirts, mugs, or tote bags. If your t-shirt, mug, or tote bag is for sale, a Commercial License allows up to 100,000 total end products. Keep in mind that, under the Commercial License, your item’s design must be significantly different than the original graphic; require time, effort, and skill to produce; and not derive its primary value from the photo itself.
Can I use a graphic as part of a book or album cover design?
Yes, but special limitations apply based on your intended use. With both licenses, you can create unlimited non-commercial books or albums. If your book is for sale, a Commercial License allows up to 100,000 total end products. Keep in mind that, under the Commercial License, your cover’s design must be significantly different than the original graphic; require time, effort, and skill to produce; and not derive its primary value from the graphic itself.
