This is *barefootliam's stock account. Or it could be a sock account.

You can use the images here in any work on DeviantArt (including prints) without needing any permission or paying any fee; I ask that you let me know when you use a piece so I can link back to it. I will add it to this account's favourites, so people can see how the images were used.

You can use the pieces non-commercially for any purpose whatsoever; again I'd like a link back if possible.

You can use the pieces commercially, but in this case you must send me a copy, and the cost is that you must go barefoot for a day, i.e. all the time for 24 hours entirely. Ok, I'm weird. Live with it.

Most or all of the original photographs (before I cleaned them up) are also available from [link] (look in 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, often in higher resolution and mostly public domain (so you can use them commercially if you like without having to go barefoot for a day!) but I also spent a lot of time processing these images to clean them up. You can also search the pictures there, which is good because there are well over four thousand of them.

If you don't want to go barefoot but you have used my stock, and e.g. want to make a print or to exhibit in a gallery, contact me at *barefootliam and we'll work something out.

I do take requests for photos. Send a note to *barefootliam or email me (liam at holoweb dot net) mentioning the colour of your socks. As of Jan 2007 the photos are taken with a Canon digital rebel SLR rather than with the Casio point-and-shoot, and are higher quality.
