I mean it's true that your terms are standard for the likes of Getty Images. But I think what this conversation reveals is that the userbase of Getty Images and software developers don't have a lot of overlap.

I think if you want to target a software developer audience you will need a single-project, multiple-user model. The majority of projects where we would use this are a revolving door of contractors, and nobody is going to do the accounting to figure out how many licenses that is.




In the spirit of open conversation, I'd welcome feedback from the group on this from CreativeMarket.

Perhaps something along these lines will make everyone feel good about it.


It's better. I still think that "contributes to the core value" is vague.


I do too a little. So I left that wording out of our rewritten license. Like the beginning of ours says "We're all adults here." The point is, don't steal by giving it away and otherwise use it like crazy.
