Judge #2: I'm so glad to have her has a judge because her stock inspired me to do this contest! Take a look at her Dorothy stock!

    

Judge #3: I'm glad to have ~LongStock on board as well because I've hosted another contest with her in the past! Her stock has also been an inspiration for this contest as well as for stock in general. Take a peek at her older but still awesome Snow White stocks:

CONTEST SUBMISSIONS

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Prior to using my stock, please be familiar with DeviantART's FAQ rules, mainly
FAQ #157: Can I use things created by other people in my submissions?
_{"The use of stock imagery at deviantART is permissible if and only if you can provide a link to the source of the stock image along with some kind of proof that you have satisfied the terms of the stock image license.</b>"}

1. Link to me in the description.
_{(It can be a link to the original picture, a link to my icon, or both.)
Tip:When you save my photo to your computer, change the file name to whatever number is in the URL. That way when you want to remember who's photo you used, all you have to do is type in the address field (no spaces) http:// www. deviantart.com/ deviation/ place number here/}

2. Link your deviation back here.
_{(Preferably on the page of the picture you used, but anything will do.)
Need help linking? FAQ #81: How can I create links to other deviants, deviations, or websites?}

3. Restrictions: _{I don't want my photos, especially those containing human models, to be used in sexually erotic creations (these include sexual positions or fetish pin-up type manipulations), religious manipulations of any sort (including spiritism, witchcraft, or holidays) or political campaigns or collages.} If you are unsure about the meaning of this, please send me a note, or look through my favorites

As I'm getting older, I'm just getting really tired of the whole blood and gore stuff. So if you don't mind finding other models for any deviations dealing with blood. You can still use my other items, textures, and backgrounds and stuff, just not my model stock. Please and thank you.

Please do not use my stock for artwork that depicts hatred for any particular race, religion, celebrity, or use my stock to show hatred for or to insult my friends or I .

Where: Just remember, these stock photos are free to use PRIMARILY ON deviantART. <sub>They can be used in photo manipulations, paintings, references, ect. (Any other usage: please request permission first)

For Blogs: I will allow my stock photos to be used under these conditions.
1. You must follow the usual rules about linking when posting on DA.
2. You MUST put a copyright symbol along with Daniella Koontz and the url of the photo used or of my page ON the photo being used for the blog.

For Avatars: You may use your manipulations of my stock in your avatar if you also submit it as a deviation with the appropriate credit given in the description.

On Dev Mobile: If it's not too much to ask, please inform me before making a deviation available for Dev mobile.</sub>

Prints: If you use my stock and would like to sell it in , send me a note with a link to the photo you would like to make a print, and the format of the e-mail to send to prints permission that I can just copy and paste. If I can tell you've spent a good amount of time and effort, I will pretty much always agree. But if you've just tweaked the colors or sometime simple, don't expect a reply.

If you don't understand this rule please read
FAQ #204: If my print contains an image that isn't mine, can I still use it for print?

For any commercial use, compensation must be discussed before use.


By using my stock and posting it on DeviantART, you agree to let me use your image for blogs, icons, and as a wallpaper for my computer

If you need stocks in smaller or larger sizes, please send me a note, a link to the stock photo and your e-mail address

Its okay to stock. It helps make it more popular and used. So please support the art you use, and fav it!

Warning: I sometimes mass submit
