I provide a free [original] source files on this site, so I think It’s important for you to know exactly what you can do with those files.
PM Design source files and freebie downloads are original works, and therefore subject to copyright. What does this mean? They are copyrighted by me with Some Rights Reserved for my protection provided by Creative Commons License, however, there are certain things you can do with them. Here’s what you can and can’t do:
First and foremost you need to understand one thing: Just because it’s free, doesn’t mean it’s copyright free. Every file (and every file contained within those files) I create/give away is copyrighted by me. I own the rights to all of my artwork. Get permission from me if you are unsure about anything. Getting permission is the right thing to do and it will save you a lot of trouble rather than getting caught selling my work.
Freebies submited by others are licensed under the authors licence.
