"COPYRIGHT" means the person who created something is legally protected against people who want to copy his/her work. It does not mean (as some people think) the creations can be copied willy-nilly! Copyright exists on Christian Computer Art material (and on this site itself).
In order to make the products useful to you, the Copyright owner has decided to waive some of his rights by way of permissions. These are detailed below. Please note that the copyright conditions for the products we sell still apply to Christian Computer Art graphics on this site - in other words if you haven't bought them, you can only use the graphics for personal purposes.
