Frequently Asked Questions

Can I link you? - This is a link-free site and you are more than welcome to link it. I have a collection of banners on the banners page. Thank you!

Can I use any of your images for avatars, on my site, or anywhere else? - The pictures on dutch-dame.com are free for private use. Please e-mail me (contact@dutch-dame.com) and ask for my permission first before using any of the photos or artwork on the Internet, as they are not always credited to me and I'd generally like to know where they end up. Removing my watermark on any photos from dutch-dame.com is strictly prohibited, I put them on for a reason. If I give you permission to use my photos, I will specify the number and you must credit me for them and link my site. I do not appreciate it if the pictures get directly linked from my site as signatures or avatars, or used without credit - this is something that happens a lot. There are plenty of free image storage sites on the Internet where you can upload to your hearts desire. Direct linking from my domain will cause the bandwidth to rise above my limit and I struggle with it enough as it is. I really hope you understand. Thank you.

What about using your photos for an artistic project, like a CG, banner or artwork? - Yes, you are welcome to use the photography for your non-profitable projects after notifying me. I appreciate your interest and will happily add your work to my gift & artwork gallery, with full credit and link.

I am thinking of working with you/ I am thinking of becoming a member of your site, can I have a peek inside? - No. I need all the support I can get, I am not giving away free peeks inside the member area. If you want to see what is inside the member area, I think my tour gives a good view of what you can find inside.

I have emailed you two weeks ago, and still no reply. You're mean! - I am terribly sorry if I have not emailed you back yet. I receive a great number of emails daily and do not always have the time to respond to every single one of them. It is very important to me to keep in touch with far away friends as well as answer all questions and comments directed to me regarding this website, and I do spend on average over 2 hours everyday on emails. If I have not emailed you, it is nothing personal, I probably have not gotten to you yet.

 

FAQ for Photographers
I am a photographer. Why should I pay you for modeling during a shoot if you make money with the pictures on this site? - Modeling is my work! I am a good model, and photographer pays for good modeling. About the use of the pictures on this paid site; when I shoot with you copyight is shared. Which means we both can use the pictures for portfolio or work. Unless I sign away copyright with contract. Once I signed the contract I won't use the pictures for this site, and photographer owns all copyright for either non- as commercial work.

I am a photographer. We worked together months ago and now I see our pictures on this site, you never mentioned that! - I only put work on this site with shared copyright. If we worked together in the past and it is on this site it is shared copyright, unless contract (i signed) state different.
