am certainly not lawyer, so my explanation here reflects laypersons understanding of the legal language, but one thing can say with complete confidence is that we are creating Spoonflower to empower designers, not to exploit them. Sarah also asked me when Id be posting my own fabric designs and creations to our Flickr pool. When we come out of beta, however, you will be able to choose to make your designs available for purchase by others. On completely different subject, back in posted link to an article written by Patricia Crews, professor of textiles at the University of NebraskaLincoln.

In the beta version of Spoonflower, the answer is no, you can only buy fabric bearing your own designs. Selling your design on fabric even just to you requires us to render derivative work, for example.
Running web site requires us to modify it and distribute it. When we come out of beta, however, you will be able to choose to make your designs available for purchase by others. But displaying your designs, as well as selling them, will ALWAYS be under your control. Our wording here well leave something to be desired, but please rest assured that we will never do anything with your designs without your permission. This feature which will make Spoonflower into marketplace for independent fabric designers will probably take some time to evolve and grow in complexity.
