Quizzes

Thanks. I'll check out LifeScript and see the kind of thing they buy. That might give me some guidance.

Quizzes

I was thinking of doing a few "decade" quizzes (multiple choice with questions about science,politics, pop culture) that someone might want to use on a website. Is there any place for something like that or would CC prefer not to go into that non-article type of piece?

Pictures

So, if you have pictures and feel they enhance the article (I'm specifically referring to my current project on a before and after theme.) is it better to simply check the "Images Available" and leave it at that? Or upload them and let the customer decide if they are worthwhile? It seems i...

Full Rights

Thanks, Mary B. You've given me a lot to chew on. Guess it's time to decide just where I want to end up with this freelancing business.

Fullrights Pros and Cons

Anyone have comments about selling fullrights while you're trying to establish your credits as a freelancer? Can you list something you've sold like this as yours? I've never sold fullrights before, so am curious about what those of you who are more experienced do.

Picture Questions

I'd like to add pictures to an article, but do you have a preference as to size and format? Most of the ones I'd like to use are around 70kb with a couple at 200+ kb. Also I can either use tables to control the position of the image or I can wrap the text.

A Dumb Mistake

I posted an article several weeks ago without images because I thought I had "lost" them. (You don't have to say it. I know. Bad filing systems are my forte. :oops: ) The article has been on CC without a nibble, and I think the images would help with a sale. I have now "found" th...

Grateful

I know nothing about the other site you have all mentioned, but I do know this: I would rather be rejected (which I have been) on CC and have the chance to edit. I would be embarrassed to see a careless mistake in print with my byline. :?

Authors' List

Do you have to have sold a piece to be included in the authors' list?
