Layout Images in exchange for Backlinks

[fb101]

Hi everyone,

I run a web site that allows people to paste images onto their Facebook profiles. I am looking for designers who want to contribute images, in exchange for having a link back to their site from each user profile that embeds that image.

This sounds like a fair exchange to me, and thus my offer to you.

Note that you can create a layout image in just a few minutes...this is a good way to get back links to your site without much effort.

I have explained everything in more detail here:

Custom Facebook Profile Images - Submit your own Profile Image!

Everything you need to know is on that page, if you would like to be a part of this.

(if this is in the wrong forum, my apologies)

Cheers,

Jeff

• All images should be copyright-free and of your own unique design

sorry, i keep my copyrights unless specifically under contract to sign them over, and that's for a good fee.

Sorry, I should have explained that point further. What I meant to say is that any images that you submit should be YOURS, or a derivative work of someone else's picture or artworkl to the extent that you could argue that it is a new work (ie., yours again).

I just didn't want people submitting other people's artwork as their own.

As far as the copyright over the image goes, you would retain full copyright over your own work...you can do whatever you like with it, you can remove the image at any time, etc. I really don't care about or even want copyright over the images that anyone submits.

The "facebooking101.com" watermark that goes on the image bottom is just for branding (so another site can't just use the same image easily), and assumes no copyright or ownership over the image.

I hope that makes more sense now. :)

sir. that is unethical and violates US copyright laws.

that is exactly what your previously quoted line suggest we do.

i personally will have no business with you. ever.
i also hope that no one else will either, but what they do is their own prerogative.

prerogative is a fun word.
