I've received a couple of queries about how my patterns can be used. As there's no convenient place for me to put this right now, I'll put this in my blog and hope that people looking for this information can find it.

My patterns for TS3 all contain original artwork created by me, and are all packaged using the Sims 3 Workshop. You are welcome to use them in your game, but there are some restrictions on how you can share them.

You may:

• Use my patterns in your own game any way you please, recolouring them for your personal use.
• Use any patterns with the TSRAA icon on the pattern download page as part of a lot or Sim, and upload the resulting lot or Sim to TSR. If you want to use a pattern that doesn't have the TSRAA icon, please contact me via PM or on my guestbook.
  

You may not:

• Upload my patterns, whether you have recoloured them or not, to anywhere.
• Create a derivative work from one of my patterns, or any part thereof without prior permission from me
  
• Share Sims and lots/houses using the patterns anywhere other than TSR. This means you may not use them to create a Sim or a lot/house for the Exchange, for example.

This policy is subject to change. If I do change it I will note the date and time that the changes were made, and if you published content before the policy changed, or it would be reasonable to assume you hadn't seen any updates to the policy, you won't be affected :)

Changed on 24th June 09 at 16:51 GMT+1: removed reference to TSRAA, pending more information from TSR on this. Changed my policy on use in lots and Sims for TSR, please contact me for permission to do this now.

Changed on 4th July 09 at 18:05 GMT+1: Added new TSRAA information.
