Please drop me a line so I can give you proper credit.
Liss for helping me realize I should just come up with my own website.
Microsoft for the operating systems and applications I use to make Ravy Comics and ravycomics.com.
1and1.com for letting me waste bandwidth.
To those who took lots of free time to program emulators.
To Mike, who just had be mentioned.
To my Mom, for being my biggest fan at a time when I really really sucked.
After all that I have more to say. I have done this to other people, it is only fair I let them do it to me. Any whole image created by the author/cartoonist/editor/paster of Ravy Comics and its subcomics my be used without permission in reviews, essays, critiques, and such.
If you want to use my characters in a comic, please ask before you publish. FYI: here's a list of the characters you need to ask about: Ravy, Becky, Toni, Cammy, Cole, Eddie, Foxy, Ghadeer, Joe, Kiyoshi, Miranda, Misao, Mohammed, Nancy Ann, Nancy Odessa, Op, Penelope, Ron, Rouruko, Roruko (note the spelling,) Serena Moon, Stanley, Touki, Uni, Vicky, Graniteman, Jetman, Maficman, Phoenixman, Reflectman, Sawman, Negaman, many more too numerous to list. This is to include all variations unless otherwise stated.
All other sprites, please take the time to ask. Be patient, it'll take a while to get over the shock of someone actually emailing me.
Further Clarification:
Unlike so many others I try not to be hypocritical. So if a character model is based on someone else's work, I make absolutely no copyright claim to it. So use it to you heart's content for I will let one of those people mentioned above deal with it. However, if the character model is 100% my original work, don't use it without permission. I need money and I will sue you for everything you got. (That'll scare them off.) At some point in the future I will do a cast page which will include a detailed explanation as to which specific character models I own and don't own.
Example:
The Beckys on the left side of your screen are not 100% mine (e.g. hands, hair.) I will not say a word in protest if I see them used elsewhere.
The Beckys on the right are 100% original so please ask. Note this copyright extends to hand drawn, sprites, and fanfics.
Jokes, Story Lines, Essays:
I don't particularly care if I see a joke or a bit of an essay/fanfic used elsewhere. If I happen to come across such an instance, I might say what a coincidence. I suggest you accept that and drive on.
There are numerous images used on this site that are under variations of the Creative Commons License. It must be said that the original creators of such works do NOT in any way shape, matter, or form endorse Ravy Comics and its subsidiary comics. That Ravy Comics does not in any way, shape, matter, or form endorse them.
Hopefully this clarifies things, though I doubt that will stop the true believers..

Any questions, don't call me, I'll call you.
Just doing what we do best: rib, riff, poke, prod, irritate, obfuscate, demoralize, and overall fanning the flames of malcontent.
