Awesome Dog Ltd - Motion Capture Studio

PREAMBLE

This license sets out the terms of sale and use for our Full Perms motion capture animations. Please read this license carefully and agree to the terms before you purchase or use any of our full permission animations. We have invested a lot in time and huge sums of money in the motion capture technology to bring them into SL. It is really important to us that they do not end up ‘in the wild’ with full perms. This license applies to Full Perms animations in Second Life. It does not apply to any other content within SL or outside of SL.

2. This license is a single avatar license and may not be transfered to another avatar.

I have not defined what market value because there are many factors involved, please be sensible though in your pricing. Please compare items to other items of a similar nature on the market. Please also understand the value of motion captured animations over simple keyframe poses, and stolen freebies floating around SL.
