I am keeping company names out of this post so I do get into trouble with lawyers, but a few weeks back I got a phone call from fairly large newspaper, asking if they could use one of my photos.
The person calling me was a keen photographer himself, and a very nice guy, but he basically said that the newspaper was not prepared to pay me *any* money for the use of the photo!
He said he felt really bad about this and was embarrassed to even ask me the question, and he would pay me a few quid out of his own pocket just to save him time trying to find another similar photo..
I asked if he could arrange for a link from their web site to mine somewhere - and he said yes - so I agreed (without taking money from his pocket)...
About a week later, another (fairly large) monthly publication contacted me and asked me almost exactly the same question, but this time not as nicely.
To cut a long story short, at the end of the conversation I said
"So you are not prepared to give me any money at all?"
They said:
"....(long pause)... NO!"
I said:
"Well in that case, the answer is no, you cannot use any of my photos!"
If anyone else has had anything similar happen to them recently, I would love to hear from you...

I have been plugging ClickBank products for quite some time now - and the result is a big fat ZERO:-
There are *some* products on ClickBank worth buying, and I know that there are some people who make good money as ClickBank affiliates, but it is not as easy as just setting up some ClickBank products on your blog and watching the money roll in!
If anyone has had any positive experiences with ClickBank I'd love to hear from you!
