basically if you are going to submit anything to floraverse, please do this

this should produce Creative Commons BY-SA 4.0 and give us the ability to make your stuff canon

the license basically says

  • anyone can use or copy or give away or sell your work
  • but your name has to be on it
  • and they have to use the same license, so anyone can use or copy or give away or sell their work too

note that because flora itself is all going to be licensed as CC BY-SA, if you create anything in the same universe, you’re already bound by the third rule above and have to use a Creative Commons license

there is one tiny bit of leeway: if you don’t want anyone selling your stuff, you can (i believe) use CC BY-NC-SA instead, which is the same except no one else can sell your stuff or otherwise use it commercially (hence the NC, for Non-Commercial). however, if you choose to do this, we cannot ever stamp what you’ve created as canon, because it would add all kinds of insane complications to whether mel can sell comics of her own universe.

ok i hope that clears that up
