Store: Esprit Decor Textures & More
Owner: Salome Strangelove
Location: Seven Veils 67, 51, 25


Current Policies Updated: 05/25/10

All of my textures are sold with full permissions, but if you experience any difficulty, please feel free to IM me. Please also take a few moments to familiarize yourself with my copyright policies located at the end of this note.

---------------------------------
INDIVIDUAL TEXTURE SET INFO
---------------------------------

Many of my texture sets have information available prior to purchase.
You can get a copy of my store policies and individual texture set info by touching (left clicking upon) the store navigation signs.
This will pop-up a notecard on your screen which you can then read and discard or save to your inventory.

------------------------
ABOUT OUR VENDORS
------------------------

Our new vendors offer more versatility for your specific shopping needs. Upon arrival, each vendor displays our standard default store logo (See below). This uniform practice will help reduce lag you would otherwise experience at zone-in. To locate the textures you want to browse, please use the store navigational signs to find the section you're looking for, and then mouse-over each vendor to find the texture set name.



To activate a specific vendor, simply touch it. The vendor will whisper you the set information and then begin to display the contained textures. To advance to the next texture, simply touch the vendor again. The vendor will continue to cycle each time you touch it.

At any point you can pay the vendor to purchase either the full set or the individually displayed texture.

Example:



* Buying Individual Textures - Pay the vendor displaying the current texture you want; right-click and select "Pay" the TOP amount. The individual texture will be placed in your system textures folder.

* Buying Texture Sets - Pay the vendor containing the texture set you want; right-click and select "Pay" the BOTTOM amount. The set will be placed in your inventory in its own folder that will likely appear in your main inventory list.

If a vendor has been idle for 30 seconds, it will whisper you again to let you know it will reset back to the default state. To continue browsing, simply touch the browser again, or do nothing to allow the vendor to reset.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
TEXTURE REPLACEMENT POLICY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

For whatever reason, you may not have a texture delivered. Please follow the below instructions to request replacements:

Texture Sets - If you purchased a texture set, it should have arrived in your main inventory in a folder. If it did not, please drop a notecard on Salome Strangelove with the date/time of your purchase and the set name for replacement.

Individual Textures - If you purchased an individual texture, it should arrive in your Textures system folder. If it did not appear there, please make a note of the texture number in its set (this is designated by the text that appears on the vendor: "Currently displaying X of Y"). Then, drop a notecard to Salome Strangelove with the date/time of your purchase and the texture number and set.

Texture replacement requests must be made within 7 days of purchase.
For individual texture purchases, if you do not provide the texture number, I cannot offer you a replacement.
All replacements are generally addressed within 48 hours; if you do not get a response, please try again.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHY NO RETURNS - NO EXCEPTIONS POLICY?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

All Esprit Decor textures are sold full-perm and thus there is no way for you to "return" any of them. No returns, no refunds, no exchanges and no exceptions is the policy we've had to adopt. If you are unhappy with a texture or a set, please IM me - SALOME STRANGELOVE - and I will try to address your concerns in a manner that will be satisfactory to us both.

We sell our textures full perm because our focus is on builders and designers and these individuals must be able to resell their work; they can't do that with restricted textures.

In the case of accidental double-purchase for FULL SETS ONLY, refunds are considered, but not guaranteed. If you experience this concern, please drop a notecard to SALOME STRANGELOVE with the date/time of purchase and the name of the set. Double-purchase refund requests for full sets must be made within 7 days of purchase and cannot be offered if the sale is unable to be verified. Please shop carefully.

------------------------------------------------------
BULK ORDERS, DISCOUNTS & CUSTOM TEXTURES
------------------------------------------------------

Bulk Orders are welcome. If you want five (5) or more sets, please contact me for a 10% discount on your order. Simply drop a notecard on me with the set names and I'll contact you for payment and transfer. Discounts are only offered pre-sale and will not be executed as post-sale refunds.

Custom textures / Coordinating textures for individual projects are sometimes considered depending on my free time and the complexify of the job. Feel free to drop a notecard with your needs and proposed payment range and I'll let you know if it's something in my range.
Prices are quoted on an individual basis. I reserve the right to resell any custom created texture unless we agree otherwise.

--------------------------------------------------
RESELL / SECOND GENERATION
--------------------------------------------------

PLEASE NOTE: We do not allow our textures to be freely transferred to another account. If you want to provide textures you've used in prefabs to customers, please send your customers to the store with a list of the textures used in your builds. We will do our best to help them find what they need.

If you want to have a custom set vendor put together for your customers based on your builds or prefabs, please contact me. I will be happy to put together a custom vendor you can display alongside your prefabs that will permit your customers to purchase the textures at the same point of sale as your builds.

If you wish to be a reseller of Esprit Decor Textures, please contact SALOME STRANGELOVE and we will explore your options.

--------------------------------------------------------------
GENERAL TEXTURE INFO: SEAMLESS, SIZE, TRANSPARENT
--------------------------------------------------------------

SEAMLESS -- Most fabric & floor textures are completely seamless, while wall textures are, generally, Left-Right seamless only.
Building and Structural textures like doors and/or windows may not be seamless at all. If you need information regarding whether or not a texture is seamless, please inquire prior to purchase. You may wish to note that even though seamless textures will generally tile nicely, some may produce unnatural patterns. For this reason you should always browse and/or ask questions before you buy. That said, I never produce a bad texture knowingly and if one texture is problematic I appreciate a heads-up so that I can evaluate it.

SIZES -- Most Esprit Decor textures are provided at either 512x512,
256x256 or 256x512, although there are several exceptions to this. If you have any texture size concerns, please inquire prior to purchase.
NONE OF MY TEXTURES ARE LARGER THAN 512x512. Some textures look better on larger prims and others on smaller prims. That is simply the nature of textures. Custom resizes are not available.

TRANSPARENT TEXTURES -- Some residents experience problems (alpha
bugs) with transparent textures, especially on spheres, hollowed surfaces, and/or overlapping textures. Please be aware of this before purchasing a transparent texture. Transparent textures are generally provided as a short-cut to using the Transparency option on the Edit Objects Texture Tab or when you only want part of the texture to be invisible (ie: window panes are invisible, but window frames at full setting).

COPYRIGHT
-------------

By purchasing an Esprit Decor Texture or Texture Set you are agreeing to abide by the usage outlined in our Copyright Policy.

All Esprit Decor textures are sold with full Second Life permissions, but that does not mean they are licensed for all uses.

ED textures may not be resold, or retouched/manipulated and resold under any circumstance. Likewise, ED textures may not be given away free on their own or as part of a package deal.

Obviously, you may use these textures on all your personal projects.
Builders, clothes, and furniture designers are free to use textures they purchase directly in my store in the construction of their wares which can then be sold to others. However, these textures may not be resold or given away to other parties on their own, or as part of another transaction. If you give/sell an object my texture should not be accessible off that object for the buyer to use individually (IE - the buyer should not be able to take my texture from your item into their own inventory or save it to their hard drive). In circumstances where you feel this will inhibit your ability to place a sale, please let me know. I am always happy to create a custom package builders/designers can offer to clients so that they will not have to purchase multiple sets.

I know that I can't completely stop customers from sharing with their friends and I have no desire to police SL for people who do so, but I ask that you please limit your sharing and encourage your friends to purchase a set if they like my textures. If you give away my textures you are doing so without my permission and violating our store copyright policy.

Esprit Decor is committed to protecting and respecting the copyrights of others as well as our own.

Many of my textures are created from scratch based on patterns I've reconstructed from outside resources. Some are retouched from personal scans and royalty free photo content, and still others are manipulated textures from bundled sources that permit their images for such use.

If you see a texture that you believe is based on a protected image, please notify me. Likewise, I hope that if you see textures of mine for sale at other locations you will let me know. However, keep in mind that texture stores like mine likely pull from similar sources and it's possible for us to end up with similar textures through no violation of copyright or theft. If there's a particular texture all over the place, itis likely from a royalty-free CD or source and not a case of stealing, so please give myself and others the benefit of the doubt when inquiring.

I would much rather make textures than deal with grumpy copyright issues, so please be respectful of what you find here. Time and care was involved in the quality of these images.

Kindest regards,

Salome Strangelove
