Dear Petr! Firstly, let me thank you for your wonderful site, your work and the collection of vector tutorials sites on this page. Secondly, if it possible, of course, please answer me. Which of these vector tutorials sites may I use to make my own pictures in order to sell them on the microstocks? Of course, in this case, my pictures will resemble those ones. Will it be right and legal to use those tutorials for microstock sellings my own pictures done with the help of them? Please let me know about it, because I am interested in the microstock sellings my pictures. Thank you in advance for it!

 

Thanks for sharing
