Contracts don't mean shit.... Sorry... they really don't. First off, you still have to sue to get the $$$ form the company. If are outside the states and do business with someone in the states, our laws and their laws are different so enforcing a contract again will be hard.

Personally, I do not use contracts. I work it 50 % up front, 50% upon completion and approval. NOTHING gets uploaded to the client server until paid in full. No Money.. no site PERIOD.

Even without a contract a designer has rights. One, they created the artwork so legally they own the artwork. All copyrights belong to the designer. To be considered work for hire.... the job needs to be paid in full.

For those who think this thread is boring, stupid or whatever... Fine... when you get ripped off... no one will want to hear your crying.

Hey, if there is a company out there riping people off.. I want to know... why would I want to do business with someone where I will never make anything from it.

I will be removing all my PIB links from my TGP's TODAY!!! Hell, in 4 months I have only made 1 sale with them... hardly worth my time.... 30.00 in 4 months.
