Using Our Images

If you wish to use an image from Artyfactory please observe these four basic rules:

<a href="http://www.artyfactory.com/">www.artyfactory.com</a>

(hotlinking): This is bandwidth theft by direct linking to a web site's files (images, video, etc.). When you view a web page, you are using that site's bandwidth to display the files. Since web hosts charge based on the amount of data transferred, bandwidth is an issue. If a site is over its monthly bandwidth, it's billed for the extra data or taken offline. A simple analogy for 'hotlinking': Imagine a random stranger plugging into your electrical supply, using your electricity without your consent, and you paying for it.

We hope that you enjoy using Artyfactory
and find our lessons informative and fun.
