How does the digital download option work? If I wanted to sell my images as a desktop wallpaper is there a way to stop the people from being able to use the images for other reasons?

    I don't see how. When you download a wallpaper, all you're doing is downloading an image of a specific size...in fact, you can search your PC for the wallpapers that you have available and you can use those images however you want...

    but you could watermark them so that they wouldn't want to use them other ways...

    I think downloads sized for wallpaper and web use don't print well, but you can't stop someone from trying.

    Thanks for the advise. It looks like I have some more research to do before I start offering this option.
