Terms Of Use

The Christian clip art on this blog is free to use only if you use it within particular boundaries. What this means is that graphics here may be used freely by Christian  non-for-profit organizations, Catholic or Protestant, Baptist or Reformed, Independent or Messianic, etc.. under certain conditions. Freeware does not mean absolutely free, I have listed the explicit circumstances in which the graphics may be used below.

A list of uses are:
1. church newsletters electronic or hardcopy
3. church or Christian school related e-mail
4. church bulletins electronic or hardcopy
5. advertising of Christian events (No tee shirts, please.)
6. worksheets for Christian schools and Sunday schools
7. VBS, Vacation Bible School
8. power point and slide shows developed by certified teachers, pastors, priests, and church staff
9. Christian school yearbook graphics
10. church or Christian school letterhead and stationary
11. personal craft projects for gift giving (non-profit)

Do not use the clip art for publications that promote hate speech, pornography, gambling, or any other unlawful activities. It is unethical to republish content in order to drive traffic onto pages that promote criminal activity. Our clip art file and the articles published here are not public domain resources. Graphics here are for ministry use only. All jpgs. are copyrighted by the Kathy Rice Grimm. Do not burn the graphics to a CD collection, nor include them in any other online collection of clip art. These can only be used for Christian non-for-profit activities/ministries that positively teach the gospel of Jesus Christ. Churches, pastors, priests, and Christian media may super-impose a logo, quotes, scripture, or name of it’s ministry on top of the graphics to create a unique identity for these visual aids. However, this does not mean that the graphic will belong to the person or persons altering it, graphics should never be redistributed as free clip art from other resources unless special permissions are granted in writing. And guess what, we will never grant permission for it’s distribution from those web pages promoting criminal activities. If our patrons should ever see these graphics or read our articles on those pages that promote the trafficking of slaves, pornography, gambling, or the promotion of ‘hate’ speech please inform our staff immediately! We state explicitly our beliefs here. If you are in Christian ministry and believe in the Apostles Creed, then you are perfectly welcome to use the graphics distributed here for Gospel ministry.

Do not hotlink to the images. These graphics are designed primarily for publishing projects, and arts/crafts. If you are in ministry on the web and would like to include an image within the context of an article, write me and ask. Hotlinking is bandwidth theft! It is illegal to hotlink to a copyrighted image unless you have either paid for it or have special permission to do so.

For further inquiry or special permissions you may write the staff at pickandprintgallery@yahoo.com

Pastors, Priests, Rabbi, and Web Designers may link to our gallery using the sample banners and buttons above. Link the web banner to http://pickandprintgallery.wordpress.com only.

Don’t forget to give our web address to your church secretary, pastor, or priest. Not many folks know about our collections!

  1. Hello Authors, I am Erin starting a new blog here on WordPress: Leading Logos. I am in seminary, Episcopalian and beginning this blog as I begin my year long internship of supervised ministry in the church. I have been looking for artwork for my blog and I fell in love with the Peace Dove Descending. I have cited Kathy Grimm on my site thanking her for her work and directing people interested in her work to your site. But I write to ask permission to use this image. My blog’s launch date is August 26th, but check it out: http://leadinglogos.wordpress.com/ Please let me know if there is a problem with this.
    Thanks!
    Erin Hougland
