Designer Payments

As the designer, you keep 90% of the profits from your sales, from day 1. You don't have to work your way up to earning 90%.

To receive your money you must have a working PayPal account. Please note that PayPal will charge you a processing fee for receiving money in your PayPal account. At the moment designer payments are sent via PayPal only. We may add additional payment methods in the future, but we cannot say if or when this will be done.

Payments are sent monthly. If you have a bunch of sales during the month we will add it all up and send your money on or around the 23rd of each month. Payments may be sent a few days earlier or later than the 23rd.

Delayed Payments & Refunds

Jellydog reserves the right to delay your payment if we see an increased risk of fraud with one or more of your sales. The payment is then carried forward to the next pay cycle where it will be reviewed again.

If a client receives a refund, you will not be paid for the refunded sale. If the payment has already been sent to you and it is then refunded, you will be required to return the payment to us or alternatively we will recoup the money from your future sales.

Prices & Currencies

The smaller version of your image will be given away for free. If the customer has the option to purchase the high resolution or vector image. You set the price.

All prices and payments are in US Dollars.

Originality

You can only upload images that you created yourself!

Do not upload images that are copied from someone else's images.
Do not upload images traced from photos, unless it is a photo that you took yourself.
Do not upload images that include a recognizable face or a recognizable product.
Do not upload images that include pre-designed elements like clip art, dingbats etc unless all of it was created by you.

We are merciless! If you ignore this rule just once we will delete your entire account. See the copyright section below for details.

Types of Images

As long as your images are original (and good!) there are no restrictions, but please keep in mind that these images are offered as templates. In other words, if the image is purchased it will not be removed or marked as sold. Other people can also purchase that same image. Therefor the image cannot be used as a logo and should not be presented as a logo. If you have logos to sell, check out LogoGround instead.

Image Sizes & Formats

You are required to upload a raster image in PNG or JPG format and you have the option to also upload a vector version in SVG or EPS format.

The raster image should be a high quality image with a size of 1000 x 1000 pixels, at least 300dpi. We will generate the smaller version that will be offered as a free download and we will apply the Jellydog watermark. You can place the image on any background, as long as the background does not contain anything that you did not create yourself.

If you add a vector image, make sure it looks exactly like the raster image. The raster image should show the customer exactly what they will receive in the vector image. If it contains any text, be sure to convert the text to outlines (or to curves if you use CorelDraw.)

Review

When you upload an image it will not be for sale right away. It's status will be "pending". You will be able to see it in your designer dashboard, but customers can't see it yet. Within one business day, our community and admins will review your design and decide if it is good enough for Jellydog. We set the bar very, very high. If your design is judged to be below the standard that we require, we will give you our feedback.

Once you reach the Silver designer level you will be able to join us in community review, where you can see the pending images and vote on whether or not they're awesome enough to be accepted.

Copyright Requirement

You must be the legal copyright holder of every single image you upload to Jellydog. It is not necessary to formally register the copyright because copyright exists automatically when you create an image, provided it is your own image and not copied from any pre-existing image.

If you find a free image or if you purchase an image from this or any other site, you typically own a license to use it but you do not own the copyright. Those images are therefor not allowed here.

Copyright Infringements

If you upload an image and it is found to be a copyright infringement, we will delete that image, we will delete all your other images, we will take any money that is in your account and issue refunds where appropriate. With the rest of the money we will buy pizza, then we will eat that pizza while we close your account and ban you from the site. If there is more money left in your account, we will buy more pizza with it. You forfeit that money.

While we may issue a warning when we find a copyright violation, we reserve the right to immediately terminate the account.

We're very strict, but we also understand that it is possible to create an image that looks a lot like an existing image, for example a country flag or a map of the United States. We promise to not be trigger-happy with the application of this rule. Accounts will only be terminated if it is clear that the image is a copyright infringement. If you're unsure if your image is a copyright infringement, feel free to post it to the forum to hear what other designers and our site admins think.
