Are making ocs from this universe of ideas ok?
Like with most works making original characters is just fine and even encouraged. We do highly recommend that if you do make an original character to either tag the work as Cosmosdex, link to the Cosmosdex, or link to the entry for the species / AI type / etc that your original character is. This is so that others may learn more about your character's type or species, and also about the universe they exist in. Doing this also makes sure the original creator of the species / AI type ends up being credited. Other than that please
do not sell your original character, more about this below.
Can I sell digital products related to the Cosmosdex?
If the product is a completely unique digital art piece, such as digital commissions, but
NOT something like an adoptable you are allowed to sell / take Cosmosdex related commissions. [Fortuna] is related to the Cosmosdex and thus falls under this rule.
Can I sell physical products related to the Cosmosdex?
It is only when we get to physical goods that issues arise. The short answer is no. If you want to sell any physical Cosmosdex related products, you MUST send a
contact us with a picture of your product, how many you wish to make, and how much you wish to sell it for. Depending on how things go we MAY allow you to sell and list you in the store section of the Cosmosdex, showing everyone that you have been approved for selling. This is not a guarantee and may or may not come with fees, as such do not create / print more of your product because there is unfortunately a good chance of rejection. There is one expection to this rule, and it may be found in the question below.

Can I sell products related to species / fauna / ect that I have personally submitted to the Cosmosdex?
This is the
ONLY exception to the no selling of physical product rule. When you submit your species / fauna / ect to the Cosmosdex, you're giving the Cosmosdex the right to make physical or digital products to sell, but you keep your right to do so as well. You are perfectly allowed to do anything with your submission, such as, but not limited to, making adoptables, selling posters, ect, as long as there is no mention of the Cosmosdex, [Fortuna] or anything in the Cosmosdex that you did not create.
Such as, if you wished to sell a poster you made with your species on it, but it included an aftik, that would not be ok and you would need to ask for premission as while you have the rights to sell anything with your species on it, you do not have the rights to other species or subject matters in the Cosmosdex. If you do decide to sell products related to your creations that you have entered in to the Cosmosdex, feel free to send a
contact us and link where you are selling your products. We will be glad to put a link to your product in the store section of the site for anyone to see.
