Like any good neighbor we are more than happy to share our stuff with you… as long as you don’t go making money off of it, for heaven’s sake! We’ve got a few rules and regulations just so that we can stay good neighbors. These rules apply to (but are not limited to) any of our images, movies, animations, text, fonts, story, characters, sounds, and music (“Assets”) as they relate to our products, and even beyond. Just so we’re on the same page, legal is not a priority, just some kind of unfortunate complication. But we’ve been told we have to watch our assets.

Here are the rules, neighbor….


NOTE: Please read these terms carefully before using this website or products. Using this website or products indicates that you accept these terms. If you do not accept these terms (“terms”), do not use the website or products.
