Customizing SMF > Graphics and Templates

Your individual forum buttons / How much is this worth for you? (brainstorming)

(1/4) > >>

andrea:
Have your individual forum buttons - adapted fully into your webdesign scheme. Example: use your corporate font style and/or colors in the buttons.

I would like to setup a [paid] service which is able to satisfy these needs.

What are my reasons to do this:

* I fully understand that people wish to have graphics perfectly integrated in their color and style schemes.
 
* I have done so many button sets that I cannot count or post them all any more. Some were posted as free sets in the graphics and templates board. Many more were made for specific themes or websites. I have done many different icon sets and icon styles and have a big archive of button torsos.
 
* I wish to offer a legal possibility to obtain modifications of my graphics. It is not allowed to modify my graphics. Modifications which are not allowed are for example: recoloring the graphics completely or partially by passing them through a graphic filter or pixelwise colorization. Although I have seen people recoloring my buttons. Even without asking. So not at last: a legal possibility to obtain modifications will help to protect my work.
 
Why paid?


* Would be somehow fair, wouldn't it?
 
* The only realistic way to set this up for the public would be a paid service. When it is not paid neither will (not all but many) people think first before they post a request nor will they respect the copyright.
 

Fixed prices?

I have recieved already various request for customized buttons, via pm and via email. Some people were aksing for fixed prices. So am I asking: what is such a service worth for you? A point here is of course that I am already hired full time by a company and so not really looking for additional [paid] work.

making things costs time, and time is money...

andrea:
Thank you Aliencowfarm for your reply. It helped to encourage me to  offer this service in the "help available board".
