Well, my photos are anyway. This is part of an "achievers" series that will be shown in McDonalds stores across the country. Little disappointed that the video cenversion made some of these photos look so crappy, but it was out of my hands.

Never expected that any of my stuff would land at McDondalds of all places, but just goes to show you that you never know.

not much, or not at all. If it is showing all over the country, it should've paid something. You can bet that announcer got paid for his work on the project.

Thanks, I did take that into consideration. And I can promise that there isn't a bigger capitalist on the forum than I. Just look back to a few f my rants about pricing your work too low.

I made a sacrifice in this instance for the Coppell program to get exposure. The production company said they were doing with no budget from McDonalds. Just to be sure, I put in the copyright use form I gave them that I was entitled to a large percentage of the GROSS proceeds from the video. I don't expect to ever see a dime.
