About 2 months ago we decided to renovate our house from the very top shingle to the flooring. New paint inside and out, new kitchen new appliances… THE WORKS! I am soooooooo freaking happy to say it’s almost over. The last tile and carpet should be laid Monday and then they do the roof and we are done! It’s been a long, hard, tiring and MESSY road, even a water pipe broke and flooded the kitchen and the upstairs bathroom the DAY they new tile was laid. But the results are awesome and well worth it. We will be posting pics soon, but the point is to say that we will be returning to our normal hours as of Monday, we can’t wait, when we started this we had NO idea how disruptive this would be, but we survived!
My Sister-in-law sent me an email today letting me know about this contest for Pammy J’s Boutique Clothing. In the end my sister sent in 3 designs. You could tell all these women really put alot of time and effort into these designs just like all the small business owners I’ve designed for over the years. So when you get a min stop on over and vote for one of these designs and keep supporting WAHM’s and the little man. Voting is until June 30th!!! :D
Currently we have 4 emails that our clients can use to contact us. Over the next few days we are going to be dwindling this down to one sole email. Then we will be implementing a support/invoicing system. We have been having some attachment/bouncing email issues lately and this system will completely fix this. All client communication, proof mock-ups etc… will come through this system. You will have you own account you can sign into to contact us or even pay an invoice we have set up for services. This change will be taking place very soon so please bear with us during the switch and remember our sole email addy now is info @ wickedcoolstudios.com. (without the spaces)
On another note we are moving house! So our toll-free line will be unavailable during the next few weeks so please note to either email us at the addy above or use our site contact form. Thank you! :)
Whether you’re a professional artist, or someone that once took a few photos you think are rad, you should know about some new legislation facing Congress.
Currently before Congress stands the new Orphan Works Bill. If passed, this bill will adversely affect visual artists, as it would drastically affect copyright laws.
Right now, anything you create is protected by copyright, whether you register it or not (although if you don’t register it, you cannot later claim copyright infringement.) Under this new legislation, nothing you create would be protected unless you commercially register it. You would have to pay to own rights to anything you create, commercially or just for your own pleasure, so that other people cannot steal your work.
The idea behind the Orphan Works Bill is to “free up old work” from copyright owners who have passed away (currently copyright laws last through the owners lifetime, plus 70 years.) But what if you’re still alive and making new work? You basically get screwed. In a sense, it will “orphan” anything you’ve ever created. Unless you want to digitize all your work, or pay big bucks to register your creativity, you’ll want to check out more on this legislation. A good clearinghouse of info can be found HERE.
