Default TOU question regarding personal blogs

Hi
Is it ok for me to use SSD papers/embellies for my personal blog banner? Everyone here seems to have one and I have been toying with making one too(probably on Blogger). Just wondering and thought I would ask! Thanks. You guys are the best--Robin

I think what most do is clear it with the designer via PM or email, then place a credit somewhere on their blog. Most designers seem to be pretty cool about this use, but you'd want to ask first and just make sure.

It is best to contact the designer becaues every designer has different thoughts/requirements on web design.

Here is a part of the TOU that addresses it a bit-
YOU MAY NOT use our items for the purpose of web design or web templates, eBay product pages or eBay about me pages, My Space Layouts or Blogger Templates without permission. If you are interested in this type of use, please contact our designers on an individual basis through our contact us page to discuss the proper licensing and/or request permission.

Yep, we're all different on our requirements, so definitely PM each designer before you use her products on your blog.

I'm fine with using my products on your personal blog as long as credit is placed in your sidebar. And I'd also appreciate a link so that I can see it in action!

I do require a licensing fee for commercial use (this includes people who design personal blogs for others). Feel free to PM me if you'd like more information on that.
