New Site With Pages For Pricing And FAQ – DavidEttinger1.com
I’ve been working lately on establishing a new site for addressing business questions about copyright, pricing, fees, etc., and it is now up and running. I wanted to keep all of that stuff separate from this here blog. It’s necessary information, and I’m really glad to have done it, but it’s not information I want mixed up with MmmInteresting, hence the separate site.
“Image Maniac” Strikes Again on Craigslist
There’s a photographer in Chicago who’s getting pretty irritated. Today, for the second day in a row, (s)he has posted an exasperated response to a Craigslist ad looking to hire a photographer. The response is signed “Image Maniac! Educating the World … One moron at a time!” [For the record, this is not me, nor do I know the person's true identity (as if there really is such a thing online anyway).] I’m pretty certain that the two angry responses are from the same person, although the response posted yesterday was not signed at all.
Image Maniac is irritated because the original advertiser is looking to hire a photographer for no pay, just like someone else was doing in an ad yesterday. I am enjoying Image Maniac’s responses, and feel the irritation, too.
Here’s a screengrab of the original post today, taken from my RSS reader (click to see it bigger):

Receiving Digital Images Via PhotoShelter
Every now and then one of my clients has some trouble accessing digital images online, so here is the complete and detailed walk-through for downloading images. When I say “detailed,” I really mean “detailed,” so forgive me if it’s too basic for you. There are really only 3 steps, but if things aren’t working right these instructions should help you get it all sorted out. Basically, these are the steps:
Step 1 – Get the Gallery Invite(s)
Step 2 – Follow the Link
Step 3 – Download the images
I want to guarantee that you are getting the best image quality pictures possible, and your pictures should be safe on your computer with the correct color, brightness, contrast, etc, and without a watermark that reads “Photo Copyright David Ettinger” plastered across the center of every picture like this one:
