    Thank you everyone for a great contest! While we have our main header graphic, a site like DragonSlayer can always use good imagery. Please PM me if you'd like to discuss having your artwork used in other places on the site. You can also sign up for the announcement list to find out when we open and to leave general feedback at the site:

    Thank you!

    Ok, I've removed from consideration the images that didn't work for one reason or another: missing elements, not unique, not usable as a header / logo, missing core elements, etc. It's clear that I really want many of the images displayed here, so let's find a way to work together.

    Alos like to point out that I know that font and there are several dragons in it that are taken
    from official logos so just cause you got it in a font you need to do your homework seeing where
    the actual design is from. I seen one guy on here try to sell the mortal kombat gamr dragon logo
    cause he got it from a font and not mistake the same font that this little beasty is also in.

    Copyright subsists for a variety of lengths in different jurisdictions, with different categories of works and the length it subsists for also depends on whether a work is published or unpublished. In most of the world the default length of copyright for many works is generally the life of the author/artist plus either 50 or 70 years. Copyright in general always expires at the end of the year concerned, rather than on the exact date of the death of the author/artist.

    The thing is you can't take fonts symbols for granted as ones like the dragons were ether logos or
    art work. You need to read the read me file with the fonts as 90% say not for sale or to be sold and
    usig that in a contest is selling it that is why fonts are not to be sold. I wish there was somewhere
    they could teach all the non professional designers ethics on the use of copyrighted material and the
    time table when it truly is free to use. You will be suprised how many years any art design or creation
    is protected. After saying this you all that think using dingbat images are safe to use will one day
    run into the owner or the person you pawned it off on with a copyright infringement law suite and you
    then will see how much it will truly cost you in the thousands of dollars in fines. One thing I learned
    in school is always cover your butt so you never will lose it.
