I think you misunderstand me. Let me explain in detail.

Everything I make and release, I release "open source".
I'm gonna make a few wallpapers because I enjoy that kind of thing, but I will only
release them as open source works under creative commons.

That means no one will have "exclusive use of the art."
and everyone will have "full [..] use of the art".

Weather this is acceptable to you, or not, I will finish my wallpapers and post them,
you will be free to use them as you wish, but not exclusively free to use them.

I refuse to do things any other way, since a magazine demanded that I remove
images that I had made from my online portfolio because I had given them all
rights.
Eventually they agreed, but the whole affair was not nice.

I know you wouldn't do something like that, but it is a matter of principle for me.



Anyway, that's just to clear, I'll get image making now.
