I find my self in a dilemma over here. I met a couple of people the other night that came up to me & praised my work, & followed on to say that I have helped them out on many an occasion. Being curious I asked if he could expand on this.
It transpires that this fella works for an Advertising/Marketing company & has used my pictures in various pitches. Nice...excellent. Thing is, he is earning some nice coin from his job, & yet Fatsarazzi gets nada. It is something that I have heard before & then it annoyed me, as it does now.
We live in tough times & even Fats needs to make some coin.
The dilemma is...do I lock down my site...make it members only a pay per entry & leave the blog open. But what about the blogs...do I not put anything up there & how do I shoot it different. A tough one especially as I am so into the anarchy of the Web & sing it’s freedom whenever I can.
I do not particularly want to change as I do love to just take it & put up for all & sundry to see & use. This would not be a problem if I was rolling in dough, but all the Dough is invested. So the Reality is having a battle with the Anarchy.
So broke like a student, kids want X Box games, still love what I do, even though my agent ain’t doing shiznit (oh the hunt for a new agent !!!)...& WW&N road is up but a slow steady incline ha hah. On wards & up wards.
Ok Rant Over...I am so looking forward to Paris tomorrow !!!
Be Well.
