TERMS & CONDITIONS
ATMOSPHERE supply pictures in two forms:
The Core collection is a mixture of Drum scans from transparencies and high resolution digital capture. While we work to high quality standards it is the buyers responsibility to check the files for quality.
Delivery methods.........
1. Pictures on Computer Disk.
The large file versions of the pictures on this website can be supplied on a CD. For firm sales no charge is made for copying the files to CD. Pictures for approval will cost £10 extra for CD copying.
2. We can send files electronically which is our preferred method.
We use a company called Photoshelter to display our images and also to deliver High Resolution, or hi-res, files for use.
When you buy from us we will send instructions on how to access the hi-res file.
Rights
When we grant a licence for the use of a picture it will be for the use specified ONLY. Please be aware that secondary use of any kind constitutes additional usage for which a fee should be negotiated and paid. For instance, displaying a brochure, with a picture visible, on a web site is an additional use. Using a picture in a magazine in a "coming next month" or contents page is an additional use. In all instances it is best to ask.
Credit
The 1988 Copyright Act gives all authors of copyright work the right to be named as the author of their work. Sorry, giving a credit is not something you can use to negotiate a lower fee.
Comping
Use of pictures for comping or rough layout purposes has become a grey area in many people's minds. Strictly speaking any such use without permission is breach of Copyright. To make things easy we give blanket permission to use the low-res JPEGs on the website or on the CD catalogue disk for your internal mock-ups and dummies. Also for client presentations for approval of pictures. Use of these thumbnails in a paid for presentation should be agreed with Atmosphere and may attract a small fee. If in doubt please ask us.
Prices
Our base prices are quoted in £s Sterling, Euros or US dollars. The prices we quote are industry norms. We think the prices we quote are fair. If you disagree we can always negotiate. Whatever we quote will be included on our invoice and become the terms by which we do business. An invoice from us is part of our contract.
If you negotiate one level of usage and then use the image more than is specified on our invoice without negotiating with us you are in breach of contract. Buying all the rights you want in one transaction will often be cheaper.
Derogatory Treatment
You should not use any picture for derogatory treatment. Although this collection is mostly landscapes you should not use captions which treat any landowner, property owner or authority in a derogatory way.
