What I Ment about RESELL RIGHTS, was if i was to sell my Website with all the content in it. I would Have Your permission to let the buyer have those Layouts aswell. I'm sorry Things got out of hand and misunderstood.
Here is and example of a Layout I made (out 0f 10) and sold 10 for $10.00. EXAMPLE



If you ever plan to make and sell Layouts on MSP let me know so i could buy some.


That's why I made this topic, to get to the bottom of things. I didn't know what I was doing so I ask for others opinion. Sorry for the misunderstanding too. I didn't know what resell rights meant.

Hey I may join that forum to sell some layouts. Thanks for telling me about it. I need the money.

That price is a bit high I think the 100 for 25 is fine if you're willing to work for that cheap

I'm I charging the right price? Is it a good idea to give her resell rights? How much would you charge for 25 standard myspace layouts? Is I'm I selling myself short? Do anyone know about how paypal work?


What kind of layouts does she want? If graphics by you are included then I would charge wayyy more, that is cheap even for regular layouts that just have a color splash. Tell her you won't accept unless she raises the price because its really unfair for her to use people like that.

Paypal is amazing, I have a business account and I have a debit card that I use all the time that I can just use all the money from my paypal account and if I don't have anything in my paypal account it takes money from the bank account that I have connected with it (You don't have to do that though).

When you give someone layouts and they pay you for them, then by all means you are handing them the rights to your stuff, most of the time. I wouldn't give her resell rights but I mean if your not that attached to the layouts then I wouldn't really care. Don't put much effort into them shrug.gif


Honestly in the past, I use to make standard really easy layouts. Go make PSDs and just throw some color and brushes and viola. Shove it as the background and then make the tables work. For 10 layouts I use to get around 60-70$..but I mean it only took me about a hour or two to make them all so I never really cared.

anyway, from the sounds of it. Shes ripping you off. Ask her for the people she re-sells too? if she'll give you that. And then uhhh tell her to raise the price and you'll do it.

I have another question. If I save a savings account do I need a routing number? I know only checking accounts have routing number but why paypal keep asking for one?

Most commissioned graphics work will have (if the buyer is smart) some sort of disclaimer about once the layout is designed, the buyer themselves hold the copyright (or moral rights) to the design because they have purchased those rights from you. As the designer, I'm pretty sure you can implement a similar clause like this to stop your work from being re-published without permission. It gets messy here, I'll have to read up on it.

TBH, any commercial site that re-distributes or re-sells your creations should really be avoided.
