๐Ÿ“Hi!


๐ŸŒฑ Hello, I'm Strabi! ๐ŸŒฑ
I like to draw anime, cute things, and OCs!
I'm a busy college student and I juggle around assignments, work, my comic, and closed species art communities all together at once I think it's a miracle I still have time to do anything. I sure wonder why I have no energy all day lolCurrently working on a webcomic with my OCs!๐ŸŒฑ basics ๐ŸŒฑ

๐ŸŒฑbefore you interact ๐ŸŒฑ- I enjoy speaking in a polite, casual, or playful manner, but I can also be kind of shy/awkward at times between my enthusiasm.- I use a lot of emojis/emoticons like :D- I can get very specific and overly wordy sometimes (sorry you might see this in my TOS lol). Sometimes it takes a whole conversation for me to be able to put something concisely.- I may take some time to respond to DMs- give or take I try to get to it in 48~72 hours. Please be patient for me to compose a response! (I don't usually ignore stuff unless if it makes me uncomfortable)


๐ŸŒฑ boundaries ๐ŸŒฑ- Please don't call me by pet names (dear, honey, sweetie, etc)- I'd prefer if we don't interact if you use slurs. If you feel comfortable reclaiming them, I will respect that, so please respect I don't like them.- I'd prefer not to interact with people under 17 years of age. (Not strict, I'd just strongly prefer not to befriend)- If you're a minor accessing, posting, or involving yourself in NSFW spaces, I will cut ties immediately, block, and inform others. I do not tolerate this whatsoever.- Please do NOT interact if you support/were an active member in the b/ayfox closed species. Please do not associate me with and do use my stuff within the group. Do not unvoid voided designs or turn designs into the species, I've had people misuse/scam others with my stuff and don't want that to happen again.

๐Ÿ“TERMS OF SERVICE & RULES


By buying, adopting, receiving any art from me, you are automatically agreeing to all the terms listed below. This is to ensure the safety of both me and the commissioner.When passing designs to secondhand owners, please make sure they are aware of my design TOS!You may reference my terms for your own TOS if it helps you out!

๐ŸŒฑ PAYMENT:


โœฆ Please claim/commission responsibly- do not bid or commission me if you cannot commit to it.โœฆ Payment upfront expected 24 hours after the invoice is sent before I start any commissions or transfer ownership of any designs. (Non-USD payment deadlines may be up to discussion.)โœฆ When I accept your commission, I will send a Paypal invoice link in a private message. If you have difficulty with invoice links, you can give your Paypal email in advance.โœฆ Additional fees may be charged before or mid-commission if you make requests for additional work or major edits that extends the time and scale of the project. These fees must be paid before commission work will continue, or the commission will be finished without including these additional requests.โœฆ Tips are optional, but always appreciated!โœง My commission prices are susceptible to changes at any given time.

๐ŸŒฑ REFUND POLICY:


โœฆ Refunds are not offered for commissions I have started or completed, nor do I accept returns for paid-off purchased designs.โœฆ A refund may be requested ONLY if I have not started your commission(s).โœฆ Any unsolicited chargebacks (or equivalent loss forced upon me) will result in cancellation of and revocation of rights to use any pending commissions, revoking of any involved adoptable designs, and a ban from my content. I reserve the right to recycle and reuse the chargeback affected content.โœฆ I retain the right to refuse service or cancel a WIP commission (with a refund) without a given reason.

๐ŸŒฑ ART USAGE POLICY & LICENSE:


โœฆ I retain the copyright over my art and work. I may use it for promotional purposes, portfolios, patreon rewards, share, and post my artwork however I see fit. I do NOT sell the copyright to my work.โœฆ Do not claim credit for my work. Please give credit where it's due.โœฆ The client will receive a non-commercial personal license to use the commissioned artwork by default. (Using for a profile picture, desktop background, decoration, etc.)โœฆ You may make SMALL edits to works you have commissioned or received from me. (Cropping, resizing, adding a background, filters, watermarks, etc.)
โœง Please ask for permission first if you want to make any major edits. (Redrawing, drawing over, coloring lineart, removing my signature, etc.)
โœฆ If the depicted character is an OC, and the OC exchanges hands, you pass the license to keep/use the art for personal use to the new owner. Please do not continue using my art if you no longer own the OC.โœฆ You may not my work commercially without purchasing a commercial use license. Commercial use includes, but is not limited to, any monetary gain or promotional purposes.โœฆ Do not use my work for scams, AI use, or to promote hate or illegal content. Including but not limited to: minting/selling for NFT/crypto, uploading to AI or using for AI training, promoting harassment or illegal activity.

๐ŸŒฑ COMMISSION PROCESS:


โœง My style tends to fluctuate a lot so please only commission if you're okay with potentially loose consistency!โœง All my progress is recorded here on this Google Sheets.โœฆ Estimated turnaround time is about 1 day up to 2 months; or up to discussion with the client.โœฆ You will only receive digital files on completion. You will not receive physical copies. Please be sure to save all files upon delivery, I can't guarantee I can provide a copy at a later date.โœฆ Edits during WIP stages and minor edits to the final product are available. Please be upfront and honest if you want anything changed, because once I receive approval from you, any further requested edits that require major redraws (that would've been considered minor in a previous WIP) will incur an additional edit fee.
โœง WIPs of a commission will ALWAYS be provided if the client requests for WIPs. Otherwise, WIPs will be sent at my discretion, or may not be sent at all.
โœฆ If I apply add-ons (that are usually charged) out of my own free will, you will not be charged for them.โœง Disclaimer: I put high priority for commissions, but I may occasionally do personal art and have other art responsibilities to attend to first between commissions. If you would get uncomfortable by this, then please refrain from commissioning me.


๐ŸŒฑ BEFORE I START A COMMISSION:โœง I require a visual reference that is CLEAR, colored, and (preferably) depicting a full body. Please be sure to specify ALL details- artist notes, expressions, poses, etc- you want me to pay attention to in your initial request. Putting together any additional images/references/sketches to help convey your idea better is highly encouraged!
(*Purely written descriptions of a character counts as a custom design.)
โœง I ask that any references provided do not depict NSFW or adult content. Plain nudity or barbie-doll nudity references are fine.โœง If you want to use your received commission for commercial purposes, please mention it and the scope of what you want to use it for in your initial request. Terms of a commercial license will be provided and must be agreed upon before payment. An additional commercial use fee will be charged.โœง If you would like me to keep your commission private and/or prioritized by a certain deadline, please mention it in your initial request. An additional NDA fee and/or rush fee may be charged.โœง If you want specific WIP stages to be sent to you for review, please mention it in your initial request.

๐ŸŒฑ ADOPTABLE DESIGN RIGHTS AND PERMISSIONS:


โœง TLDR, you have all rights to the adopt to do whatever you want with it (except the artwork, I retain copyright over it), I just ask you to:
- Give credit and not claim authorship of design creation.
- Not use my designs for illegal/immoral activity.
- Not scam people with my designs.
- Not duplicate/copy my designs, especially for profit.
- Purchase a full commercial license first if you want to make large commerical profit with your adopt.


โœฆ Please credit my toyhou.se, Strabi, if hosting my design on toyhou.se! I highly advise against deleting the adopt profile as it will delete your verification of ownership.
โ†ณ If I know a design had a TH profile at one point, I will not
reaccept creator credits on a reuploaded profile unless if traceable ownership proof is provided. Please take caution if you buy/trade for an adopt that is not credited to Strabi or mayotsuki on-site.
โœฆ Reselling, trading, or gifting your adopt is allowed at any time under your ownership. You may resell for a higher price than obtained for if you make/buy new artwork or other things of monetary value for them. However, please be courteous and do not resell free/gift work you receive.โœฆ If an OC exchanges hands, you pass the license to keep/use the design and art for personal use to the new owner. Please do not continue using the design or my art if you no longer own it.โœฆ Personal use is allowed. You can make an OC out of them and edit their story/info freely.
โ†ณ If redesigning the base design, my credit must be given regardless of how large the change is. You may freely redesign, but please do not redesign beyond recognition from the original (to where you can just make a new OC instead) or make harmful edits (whitewashing, erasure of minority representation, etc).
โ†ณ If creating alternate forms or alternate universe designs, all forms (including redesigns) MUST be kept together as they are the same OC.
โ†ณ You can give my designs alt/au forms in existing closed/original species; asking for permission first is appreciated, but not required. I only ask because this involves adding someone else's TOS to my design. However, please ask for permission first if you want to unvoid/reinstate a voided CS design.
โ†ณ Please ask me before making sibling/twin, parent, or children designs. (This is because this can fall under duplicating/heavily copying a design!)
โœฆ Commercial rights for your adopt (design only, NOT my artwork) are limited to indie use: promotional use (use as your mascot, post ads to promote your work, small-scale vtubing, etc) and virtual publishing (monetized youtube video, webtoons canvas app, patreon posts, etc).
โ†ณ Any other form of planned or expected large scale commercial profit is not included in this license without purchasing a separate "full commercial rights" license: examples include getting a publisher contract, physical publishing products to sell (books, merchandise, etc), sponsored/contract vtubing.
โœฆ Feel free to contact me to ask questions if you have any!


๐ŸŒฑ ADOPTABLE DO NOTSโœง Do not claim credit for the original design.โœง Do not add extra rules restricting usage of my designs when passing them to secondhand owners.โœง Do not make identical, heavily-based, "breedings/fusions" (this type of stuff) based on my designs for profit.
This includes making a whole new closed/original species group/arpg out of or sell adopts heavily based on the concept of an one-off adopt in the same manner as a CS without permission.
โœง Do not feature my designs in or endorsing illegal activity, including sexual work with or for minors, or promote hate speech and harm in any real world context. You will be immediately blacklisted and may warrant public notices.โœง Do not use for any kind of AI or AI training purposes for any reason.โœง Do not use my artwork for commercial, monetary, promotional purposes, or mint/sell my works for cryptocurrency.

๐ŸŒฑ CONFLICTS AND BLACKLISTING:


โœง I will never randomly revoke adopted designs. (The only case a revocation will occur is when a chargeback or an equivalent loss has been forced upon me.)โœง I NEVER and will never intentionally blatantly copy someone else's design without permission. Similar appearances are most likely caused by generic ideas forming a coincidence. However, if you think a design I've made holds a strikingly similar appearance to another person's design, you may privately politely inform me and I will examine the situation and take appropriate measures if the designs are deemed too similar. If there is not enough or your claim is poorly supported, I retain the right to deny the claim. Please remember to keep etiquette. There is NO NEED FOR CONFLICT.โœง Stealing and redistributing any design I have created that you don't have the rights to will result in blacklisting and a ban from my work.


โœง Public Blacklist : My public blacklist only serves to inform parties who are looking to rehome my designs of whom I do not want my designs to be owned or edited by.โœง Blacklisted users MAY NOT receive any other existing design/adopt made by me. Once an adopt is no longer under their ownership, it CANNOT return to their ownership.
- ANY commercial usage of my designs is forbidden.
- Adopts CANNOT be redesigned or given alternate forms by the blacklisted user, even if they do not own the design (ie, they cannot offer to redesign my designs owned by other people). I had issues where blacklisted users have scammed others with these redesigns and I do not want that to happen again.
โœง If you are blocked by me but not on my blacklist, I politely ask that you don't interact with my content or block evade, thank you ^^

๐ŸŒฑ Disclaimer: These terms are subject to updates at any time.
