In reference to writing articles, does it matter if it is copyrighted material? For example, Darth Vader?
Thanks
Bill

hi
thanks for asking no i don't think it does but you always run the risk if lucas wants to play hardball I guess he could, is Vader a public figure? I guess you could say so.

Do you have to "hire" your writers to pay them the $75? Or can I just come up with my article according to your specs, submit it for your approval, and if you like it, then you publish and pay? I'm very interested in writing some "How To's"...and making a few extra bucks. I'm a very good writer and very thorough. Thanks.

Hi

Thats for the On Line mag. www.airbrushartistmagazine.com

Don, I can have a how to on that skull contest design if you want. The techniques involved where: computer manipulation to design it on paper, Stencil techniques on the real airbrushed version, freehand airbrushing, spattering for the sand, cotton for the clouds, Laundry bag for the snake skin, Sticker paper for stencils and freehand for basic layout and skull. Thanks. Brad.

Hi Brad
Sure give Liz a few days to finish what she is doing and your next on the list if that will work for you.
Thanks
