Oh yeah, that's why I did it. Because GFY is SO valuable lately. Yep, you fuckin' pegged me.
Ignorant moron, MANY "old schoolers" that lurk here but have too much class to get involved in drama have ICQ'd me with support. I wish I could copy and paste the conversations here.
Board Jockeys that like to stir up shit (like you) may think otherwise, but Fletch was not mistreated here by me.
Again, I challenge you to find a SINGLE other program owner that is willing to cut the designer in on a percentage.
Or a model, for that matter. Even Lightspeed has stopped cutting models in (at least, ICQ conversations with him have indicated that).
Some of Fletch's own clients have told me that I'm crazy to give up a percentage.
If I would have down things the "normal" way (paying the designer once and not even considered percentage) this wouldn't have happened.
AND if Fletch had waited 2 AND A HALF HOURS for me to answer his ICQ message and address his concern (or simply called me on the phone) this never would have been an issue either.
DO YOU THINK ANYONE HAS MOTIVATION TO 'HELP' SOMEONE I CONSIDERED A FRIEND WHEN HE DOESN'T HAVE THE COURTESTY TO EVEN WAIT FOR MY FUCKING REPLY BEFORE GOING TO A MESSAGE BOARD??????????????
No, if Fletch had simply contacted me as the normal, sweet person he is, I probably would have given him TWICE what I paid him today AND I WOULD DEFINITELY STILL BE DOING BUSINESS WITH HIM.
As it is, I am so disgusted by the lack of professionalism (bringing it to the boards first) that I will not do business, and he has lost much more long term income than he was paid today.
I would have made things right with Fletch no matter what. There is no doubt about that. Those who know me here know that to be true.

Don't make yourself look so pathetic.
The designer probably won out ?to most of the old timers?. However, a similar situation happened to me, and I decided not to take the settlement offer that was low and took the lost because it insulted me. I learned my lesson from it. Rather than pursuing a no win lawsuit, I spent my money which would had cost to sue the company (thief) with my lawyer of how not to get screwed out of payment when a client thinks they own my intellectual property.
Call me every swear word or name you can think of but if you think you are a stand up guy because you can write a check, think again. You have partnership with one person and another partnership going on. And you couldn?t communicate with your partners before the shit hit the boards?
However, you could start a thread about how you love your job (creative pics), telling members to sign up here before this thread was posted
Think again?
