I can't seem to find license agreement anywhere for the PSD's. Is there a license agreement so these PSD's can be used?


Usually the author (that posted it on Dribbble) will have a description of how he likes the PSD to be used - ie: Not for redistribution or doesn't want to see it used and reposted on Dribbble etc.

Safest bet - contact the author directly and clarify. You can find their contact info through Dribbble.

Personally when I find resources I'd like to use (mainly non print, commercially), I contact the authors directly and offer to buy a license. Everyone's pretty open and friendly.


Half the value of these sorts of resources is in having a clearly displayed license. If you're managing such a service why would you not require people to specify a license at upload (which could include "must contact me at user@example.com") rather than have each individual have to make the effort of establishing the license conditions?

I used http://www.stockfreeimages.com/terms.html recently, they have a clear statement of terms and each image download page has the copyright details on it; handy.


It varies too much, that's why the service doesn't link to the psds directly when available. Usually the creator will specify some loose terms.


Freebbble is less populated, but contains license information for each item. http://freebbble.com/
