My Calculator Collapsed after i got a DA Massage !

Mon Sep 28, 2009, 5:40 AM
...belive it or not, i got a message from the DA Print Department that someone purchased one of my Prints ( the Red Lambo ) and they also informed me that the ( my ) Artist Profit is
0,17 USD $ ( 17 cent´s ! ! ! ) first i thought the are Joking with me cause such a smal amount is not even worth the Mail that its send with, so i take a close look at the Calendar; No, we dont have the 1st of April, so it must be true !

My calculator colapsed after i try to figure out how many Prints i have to Sell before i can purchase my fist Real Lamborghini from the DA Money :abduction: :giggle: :giggle:

...and i still can not belive that !


So the conclusion after all is; I disabled all Activate Print Options !
( the truth is the Main interest to Buy prints was more than poor Hahahahahaha! )

Why ? Answer; i Realy honestly think that a Customer who Order one DA Print didnt
make a good Deal with it, cause a JPEG is a Picture in a Reduce Quality ! its not like a tiff or psd. with a better Resolution. If i compare a Jpeg with the Real Painting i coud Cry ( yes ! its soooo Bad Quality )

...so I do nobody a favor if they Buy a Print ( from DA ) wich Origin file ( Data ) is in a Reduced Quality.

...but the De Tomaso Pantera Download in an acceptable resolution is stil FREE !
:iconcheerplz:
...and also the Pagani Zonda
:iconcheerplz:
...and the Hughes 500
:iconcheerplz:

So Please enjoy if you like them :handshake:

That's pretty sad! :)
:iconcarart:
Haha, yeah a Real Ripoff... i have to Sell Milions and Millions of Ceap Prints before Take Off !
:iconcarart:
Haha, no Daniel thats the Real Life of Artists who want to Sell Prints over thier DA Account :giggle: :giggle:

...but i know what you mean :handshake:
:iconrimete:
Not a very good incentive.......
:iconcarart:
No, not at all *_*

...my motivation to Sell Prints over my DA account is
" gone with the Wind " :giggle:
maybe it´s better to deactivate the " Sell Prints " option
:iconrimete:
I don't blame you, the idea is to make $$$ and if that isn't working..Others ways (self-publish a book) or ?
:iconcarart:
Haha, no... it never was a Serious Idea of me to make Money over my DA account realy not, ...but if you See
that DA grab´s over 95% of the Selling Price ! ! ! of a Print,... i think everybody know what i mean !

Cause I know that the most users here are Artist too,
and it is realy not common that one Artist Buy´s another Artists Paintings.

The Time interval to raise one of my Paintings up to Finish it, is nealy 100 hours of Working Time !
...so it is not so Easy and goes not so fast to get enough Material to complete a book or Calendar or watsoever ^_^

...but i´m Working on it, slowley but consistently ^_^

Quality needs Time, and i will not change that !
I take my Time ^_^

Thank you my Friend :handshake:
