The Member-2-Member (abreviated "M2M") feature allows members who digitize to easily share their designs with other member using the ATW website. Below are the rules for using M2M and a tutorial on how to post designs there.

If you have any questions about using the M2M feature, please contact me for help.  My email address is webmaster@artisticthreadworks.com

The "RULES are pretty straightforward and are mostly designed to protect you from legal hassles.  

Copyrights

A digitizer may post their own designs in our M2M section for download by other members.  The designs must be your own digitizing and must be based on artwork that you have specifically been granted permission to use for digitizing and allowed to distribute to others. 

You may NOT post designs or pictures of designs that you don't have permission from the copyright holder to re-distribute.  This means NO designs may be posted based on artwork from Disney, Warner Brothers, automobile or motorcycle manufacturers, sports teams pro or collegiate,  or any other company's trademarked or copyrighted artwork or porducts.   If you are in doubt about posting something, please contact me first for a clarificaton.

If you see anything posted that you think is a violation of someone's copyrighted works, please contact us immediately and we will take appropriate action.
