Default MUUHAHAHAA!! .... ha!
*phone rings*

Editor friend - "Hey buddy, you got a photo of a fox body mustang doing a launch?"

Me - "Yea, lemme check...." *types and clicks away*

Me - "Sure do, is black OK?"

Editor Friend - "Works for me buddy" (calls me buddy a lot)

Me - "Cool, what's in it for me?"

Editor friend - "Hundo sound OK?"

Me - "Sweetness"



Easiest hundred bucks I ever made... didn't have to do squat from a photo I took 6 months ago.


Don't ever delete squat.

If you were anything like a real pro you would have asked what it was being used for, you would have figured out their run, and would have consulted that website that tells you how much to charge, then pumped it up 15% for 'expenses'...

grats hack.

Perhaps there might be a pm from Niresangwa that has a URL to a certain website that tells you how much to charge in my inbox?

I did. It's for a project he's working on. We do favors for eachother a lot. This is just another example.
