Terms of Design


By placing your $15 deposit you are agreeing to these terms of design.

payments  
Payments will only be accepted via PayPal.


wait time
Wait time depends on how many clients I have on the current wait list. You can always check the wait list or Twitter to see which project I am working on.

copyright
If you are using photographs other than your own, you must have the photographer's written permission to use them. Also, most designs require a digital scrapbook kit which I will purchase to create your design once you decide which one you would like to use. These kits can only be used for your blog design. In addition some designers require a commercial fee to use their artwork. Please note that the costs of digital scrapbook kits, commercial fees and istockphotos (if applicable) are not covered in the price of a blog makeover.


template
It is strongly recommended that you backup your template before the makeover begins. Nothing has ever been lost during one of my makeovers, but as the blog owner, it is your responsibility to backup your blog template in case of any accident. The process to backup your template is super easy. For instructions please see this tutorial.

ordering
Please note that by making a deposit you are also agreeing to these Terms of Design. Once your $15 deposit is made, your name will be put on the wait list. The remainder of the invoice is due upon completion of the blog makeover and before installation.

revisions
I hold your files and pictures for 10 days, and am happy to make small tweaks in that time frame free of charge. If you need adjustments made to your blog after the 10 day period, you will be billed my hourly design rate of $25/ hour.


storage
If you know you will need adjustments that include your scrapbook kit after the 10 day period, please check the storage option on the order form. Storage is a one time fee of $10.

refunds
Deposits are non-refundable and due to the nature of the business, Small Bird Studios is unable to make refunds on services. If you are unsatisfied with the services, please send Franchesca an email and she will do everything possible to meet your design expectations.

credit
For each blog makeover or design completed, Small Bird Studios will place it's button in the bottom of a sidebar for design credit. By choosing Small Bird Studios for this design service, you agree to keep the button there until you decide (if/when) to change your blog layout. Additional credit will be given to any designers' scrapbooking kits in small text underneath the Small Bird Studios logos. This is in compliance with most digital scrapbook designers' TOU.


privacy
None of your login information will be shared or stored. Once the design is complete, I will be publishing a screenshot of your blog design on my blog with a link back to your blog for my readers to see the full and finished piece. If you prefer me not to link it back, please tell me ahead of time.
