you sound strict. aktuli, this journal sounds very much like you. haha.
good luck. you know i can only deposit good lucks cos i'm the one broke with you XD

The trouble with most of us is that we would rather be ruined by praises than be saved by criticism.
do i sound too strict? i just felt that this is *cough*seriousbusinesslol*cough* because it involves cash and all that shit. i just don't want to get anything screwed cos at the moment, i'm already screwed. this is serious business, man. youknowwhatimean.
well, it's your call how you want to put it~ it's just my impression

ai no tame ni!
Personally I'd suggest rephrasing 1. to something more like "If you use my artwork on a site, proper credit must be given with a link back to me. (I need all the free advertising/publicity that I can get.)
Like Fu-fu you may want have a rule about use such as whether or not you retain the right to do prints (some commissioners may be opposed to this if it's their OC others like me might be willing to work it into the deal). And like Fu-fu and I were talking about, the limits the commissioner has where publication is concerned. Fu-fu for example will charge more if I intend to use a piece for small scale publication and well large scale publication fu-fu wants royalties. This is probably something you'll want to phrase loosely but state that publication of the work to be discussed, so that the use of each is clear.
This is partially covered in rule 1 but you may want to rephrase that, as there will be some people who do not want their OCs posted and in that case like the previous I would suggest charging an additional fee and ask to retain the right to use it in printed form for a portfolio.
