What not to do when you are creating a brand!

Oops! Today I learned that purchasing an image on Shutterstock doesn’t allow you the right to use it as your logo. I have contacted my web designer and she will have the cute art image that I purchased taken down by this evening. There are so many things to learn about branding and promoting books. I would like to apologize for not understanding the license I purchased, and I hope no ill feelings are born for using the image on my sight these few short weeks. I am trying to contact the artist for permission or to create another image to use in it’s stead. Until then, we will do the best we can without the cute little art that said Romance with a Tickle. Best to everyone!
