The IROIRO NFT collection will use the uwu Art License for the rights of the art and characters of IROIRO.
The uwu Art License is designed to encourage derivative art, but also respect the holder’s rights, as we believe their NFT is a representation of them! The uwu Art License was created by uwu Labs!
Keeping it uwu
As IROIRO is part of the uwu Labs Family, we believe ‘keeping it uwu’ means:
Giving proper credit and respecting the artist(s) behind the art
Respecting how the owner of an NFT would want their NFT to be represented
Welcoming derivatives, but requiring NFT ownership or clear permission from the NFT owner for commercial use
With that in mind, we would like to announce the following art licensing for IROIRO.
Holders
For the NFT(s) you own you’re free to
Copy or share in any medium
Make derivatives, remix, or transform in any medium, even commercially
As long as you give proper credit to IROIRO
Non-holders
For any NFT in the collection you’re free to
Copy or share in any medium
Make derivatives, remix, or transform in any medium, but NOT commercially
As long as you give proper credit to IROIRO
IROIRO Team
The IROIRO team reserves rights to use all IROIRO collection NFT art and all derivative art for promotional use.
PFP NFTs as characters
As part of the uwu culture, we believe NFTs can represent one’s online personas and identities. We hope to encourage a culture of representing people through their NFTs.
Under the uwu art license, the owner of the NFT not only owns the art, but also the character of the NFT as well — meaning that they have the ability to grant permission for others to sell derivative art that includes their character for as long as they own the original NFT.
Keep in mind that this permission only persists for the owner of the NFT, so if the original NFT is sold after permission was given, commercial usage permission of the character must be requested again from the new owner.
Part of “keeping it uwu” means being mindful of how you represent someone’s NFT character in derivative works. If you think someone would be uncomfortable with how they are being represented, remember you can always ask for permission from the NFT owner!
Community Collection
In order to give our non-holder community members an opportunity to contribute to IROIRO, we are implementing the concept of a “community collection” from the uwu Art License guideline — a small subset of team-owned characters which are under a CC0 license!
Community collection IROIRO can be used for anything, such as:
Enter into IROIRO derivative art contests to win prizes
Draw, mint, and sell derivative works of mascots
Include IROIRO as a feature in other NFT collections
Community Collection CC0
For all NFTs in the community collection:
Anyone is free to copy or share in any medium
Anyone is free to make derivatives, remix, or transform in any medium, or use for any purpose, even commercially
‘‘Origins’’
We’ve designed the following 10 IROIRO characters to be used as the IROIRO community collection a.k.a “Origins”! Once an IROIRO NFT is added to the community collection, it will never be removed.
More IROIROs may join Origins in the future! This is the uwu Art License catered specifically for IROIRO, we encourage other projects to also adopt the uwu art license to encourage an art-focused community abundant with derivative works!
