Generally speaking use of content is granted only by written permission.
Please email be at
if you intend to use my website content in any way.
The exceptions to this include using an image as a desktop background (aka "wall paper")
or providing a direct link to one or more of my web pages;
for these uses I do not need to be informed.
If your intended usage is for non-profit or educational use I almost always give permission without fee.
Minimally, I ask to be given credit by name and reference to the website.
If your venture is to publish, reproduce, or otherwise use the content for commercial gain there will be a modest fee.
In all cases where I have granted specific permission I would like to know where my content is being used (e.g. copy of publication, URL, etc.).
With the possible exception of a specially agreed to arrangement, I retain the copyrights to all content.
