[Talk-GB] Order your OSM leaflets today!

Is it feasible to replace proprietary-licensed media used to create that leaflet?

Or at least, please remove claim about open licence. At least
the first one (from Vecteezy) is not open license at all and
building upon such work requires either 

- limiting output to 50 copies, and
- creating Vecteezy account, and
- being within other limits set by Vecteezy

or 

- paying Vecteezy

And either will be unfeasible once Vecteezy is gone
or they remove this image from their site. Or they
substantially change licensing model.

See https://www.vecteezy.com/licensing-agreement

"limited, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable (except as expressly permitted in
this License Agreement) and non-transferable license to use, modify, and
reproduce the Content you download for a single Design Project"

More specifically, it would be worth checking are you even allowed
to publish design files with such licensed media.

"You may not sublicense, resell, share, transfer, or otherwise redistribute
the Content (e.g., as stock, in a tool or template, as source files, etc.),
not even for free."

"You agree to take all reasonable steps to prevent third parties from
accessing and/or duplicating the Content."

"You may not download or stockpile Content for future use.
You may save Content on your computer or other storage device
for up to 30 days while your project is in progress. Once your project
is complete or if you unsubscribe, all unused Content must be deleted
for your computer or other storage device"

>> Hi all,
>>
>> As you may recall, OSM UK was awarded a microgrant to produce a set of leaflets. I'm pleased to say that you can now order these online for FREE :-) [delivery to UK, Isle of Man and Channel Island addresses only at this stage but do let us know if you don't live there and are interested]
>>
>> We have a pre-packaged selection which we are recommending. This includes equal amounts of the leaflets funded by the microgrant and a small number of the leaflet we designed previously (we have a lot less of these).
>>
>> If you want more than 120 in total please follow the instructions on the form (ie. email >> info at osmuk.org>>  with your order and a short reason why). We're happy to do big orders so please don't feel put off by the extra little step required.
>>
>> The form is at: 
>> https://osmuk.org/leaflets/
>>
>> Thanks,
>> Rob
