White & Nerdy Screen Saver

Post by **MewSkitty** » Sun Mar 04, 2007 11:11 am

I made a White & Nerdy screen saver with the complete song and 62 pictures from the music video from singingfool.com. Now, I know that this kind of stuff will be hot once the word is out, so I feel like selling the screen saver for $1 per download. If someone can create a website for selling this and other Al screen savers (I plan on making ones for all the music videos) I will give them 40% of the total income I make from the downloads. I have a friend who has a pay pal account the money can be put into, but I haven't asked her yet if she'll help me with that part because she ain't online yet. If someone will do this, I know the perfect web hosting we can use that is free and includes a free .com domain name such as yourwebsite.com but it's only open to US residents. Anyways, to help you know what kind of work you're dealing with, the White & Nerdy is free to download at the time being for anyone who'll like it. Just go to the following URL:

You plan on giving Al and TBITB a 40% cut?

Before you do anything email Bermuda and tell him what you plan on doing, because you will need permission from Al [or more likely Sony BMG, good luck with that]. It sounds like a cool idea, but it's something that Al could easily do himself and get 100% instead of 40%.....Just don't start selling it until you have the all the necessary permissions.

Hahahah, and we ALL know how nice Sony is...

but anyway, good luck, man.
It would be a lot better/nicer to just release it for free...

If I don't hear back from Bermuda soon I'll release the better White & Nerdy screen saver and other ones for free. I'll just get money on ads for the site.

So you plan on turning a profit on copyrighted material you don't own the rights to?

wow.

Like I said, DO NOT sell the screen saver without some kind of written permission. And lets be honest, it's extremely unlikely that you'll get it. Even if you did, part of what you made would have to be given to Al, TBITB, Chamillionaire, and probably Sony BMG too, so unless you were selling thousands of them, it's hardly worth the effort

I wouldn't even put it up for download period.

Yeah, good point Aron. Though that might be possible just with permission from Al, and it's unlikely that you'll get into any real trouble by just having it up for download.
