GWW Members - Spend Mah Money

Greetings All:

Well, I'm on another spending spree again. I figure, instead of hunting people down, why not offer first dibs to my GWW Family of which I am proud to be the bastard stepchild.

:goof:

Here's what I'm looking for guys and gals. If you think you can handle any of the below, let me know and provide any relevant links to portfolios, etc. Also, I'd like quotes where possible (it's fine to send those via PM or email)..

1 TGP Site - Twink Niche => Logo, site design, templated into modified AutoGallery SQL, 5 120x60 recip banners, 5 250x250 promotional banners, 5 468x60 promotional banners

1 TGP Site - General Gay => Logo, site design, templated into modified AutoGallery SQL, 5 120x60 recip banners, 5 250x250 promotional banners, 5 468x60 promotional banners

1 Links Portal - Full logo design, site design, templated into modified Links SQL templates, 5 120x60 recip banners, 2 225x225 promotional banners, 10 250x250 promotional banners, 10 468x60 promotional banners

150 Promotional Banners - 50 Static 50 Animated, variety of sizes (225x225, 250x250, 120x240, 125x125, 120x60, 468x60, 468x80)

5 Promotional Banners - static, Full Page

10 Promotional Banners - Flash (5 250x250, 5 468x80)

200 Gallery Pages - each semi-unique, including image selection and sizing

Descriptions - Need descriptions written up for each of the 200 Gallery Pages listed above after they're created.

Descriptions - Need descriptions + keywords written for every photoset in a paysite (approx. 500). Each set is already in a custom CMS, you'll be provided with a login that will allow you to enter the description and keywords for each set into our database.

3 Logos - cartoon caricature

Voice Imaging - 4 30 second spots, fully produced

2 Tshirt Designs - small front left design, full sized back design, will do a first run of 250 each if you're also able to handle that

1 Mousepad Design - will do a first run of 250 if you're able to do that as well

Traffic - looking to do some major traffic buys for mid-april timeframe, not looking to make buys from people that can't offer at least 15,000 user clicks / month (gay specific, niche is unimportant). Also looking for webmaster traffic for the same time frame. Don't have a minimum click requirement, but am looking for decent exposure sites only.

Content - I'm ALWAYS buying up twink content, and have just about snatched up everything available from the brokers (both large and small) that I like. If you have exclusive or semi-exclusive stuff let me know. North American and European providers ONLY please. I've had enough bad experiences from everywhere else in the world to officially boycott them, sorry.

I've got the cash on hand and am ready to go, so I'm hoping as much of it as possible can go to people that I at least semi know (or are the types of people that I would at least semi like to get to know). Willing to make payouts via CC, Wire Transfer, and Check (certified) ONLY. Sorry, but I'm not signing up for funky online payment systems, they make my CFO bitchy.....

$35 for the gallery descriptions as long as you tell me how long approx each desc should be, and whether each needs one cap or one on each word.

i do descriptions and keywords, but can't quote without knowing about how long each description should be. i can tell you that i will give you a fair deal, and get done in a timely manner - and that i am great with keywords ;-)

I was soo hoping you'd have the time/desire to work on this project basschick :D

For the galleries, each description (aka title) should be about 5 words (give or take) and have a cap on each word.

For the photosets, I'm looking for actual descriptions that describes the set to the users. Should average 10 words give or take 2 or 3, and be in sentence format (1st word cap, other words lower with . at end), along with 3 or 4 keywords. Ideally, you'd come up with a standard set of keywords and just apply whatever ones are applicable to each set. Just don't underestimate the work involved when quoting this part of the job, as everything needs entered into a web-based form and submitted, for each set individually.

sounds wonderful. i'm used to writing 450 - 800 character descriptions. 5 words or 10 words sounds relaxing :)

obviously i'd have to see the form to figure how complex this will be, but it sounds like something fun and fairly fast (lots of f's there). let's talk when you're ready to go.

Ill send Forest a link to this thread for the galleries :)

Welre in the process of having his team design some for us and they look shit hot :thumbsup:

For the T-shirts, hit up Digital Jay or Zebratees.com :)

The voice imaging, you could probably get done cheaper offline in the 'non adult' world for what its worth ;)

i've been extremely happy with the banners we get from webinc - the quality, the layouts, and even the price is good :)

www.galleryguy.com has tons of experience with tgps, and www.orchiddesigns.com has a lot of experience, too.

www.highendcreatives.com makes some nice galleries at an amazing price, and www.adultdesign.biz has reasonable prices and experience. we've used them both, and were quite satisfied. highendcreatives are more graphical, adultdesign.biz's are more text oriented as far as links.

for fhg's, i saw this guy on gfy http://www.enterdesignstudio.com/portfolio and although i don't know him, some of his fhg designs - like milfhunter - are the best i've seen. he understands that fhg's can have a lot more advertising space underneath, and made great use of it.

dunno if any of that helps, but thought i'd put it out there...

people beware!
Ask money in advance if you plan to do any work for this guy.

You have got to be kidding me. He says this because I was going to buy a bunch of pre-made flash games from him. He sent them to us to look at, there were several things that made us VERY concerned with them (I'm not going to start libeling another company by discussing details.), so we decided we didn't want them. We didn't pay him for them, and we didn't put them live on our site, end of story.

There are probably a couple of content producers from Russia and South America that may troll into this thread as well, we didn't use content that they sent to us, or pay them for it, either. We had VERY good reason not to, but again, I'm not going to libel other companies or individuals by discussing details.

Hopefully in this industry people can imagine and understand the situations that I'm talking about, and I'm confident that they would have done the same as I in each of them.

If anyone that's interested in doing some work for me feels uncomfortable, I have business references on file for the past several years that can attest to well into the 7 figures worth of contracts and work that has been done for me.

As for prepayment, that's something I do when the situation warrants it, or if it's an individual/company I'm confident with (read: not located in romania, russia, south america, etc.). I also of course pay deposits, etc. as is standard business practice for design work and the like.

Some people have the nerve. I'm not going to allow this thread to become any more ridiculous that it already has, so I will not being playing tit-for-tat with this guy....

Hey there Bec. Sure, we're using a modified version of a commercial package called "Links SQL" by Gossamer Threads Inc. for the Links Portal. It's a template based system, so we would need the layout to be designed and formatted for those templates.

Thanks for the references Lee! I always like to do business with someone that's done work for someone that I know.

As for the voice imaging... Yeah, I have a guy that I've used many times in the past that's been the voice of the MTV Video Music Awards along with other things. A VERY talented man. But for some reason he's not comfortable recording ad spots about butt fucking. Who would have thought?

Ok, here's an update:

- All gallery and photoset descriptions are being written by BassChick, so they're no longer available.

- We have Forest doing 50 Galleries so far (and yes, he can attest to a 50% deposit paid, haha =P).

Everything else is on the table, although I'll be checking out some of the guys Lee and BassChick referred me to.

Let me know!

3 months ago TheBoyAlley contacted me to buy our games.
I coded the games, explained him how to install them, coded some small changes to fit his site.
I told him the games have a top10 feature, works both in asp and php. He wanted
coldfusion. I just felt something and became cautious.

I sent him the games and expected for the payment... and waited... and waited.
Sent him few ICQ messages then I gave up after 2 months and blocked the games - the games were coded to load this

swf http://www.adultgamestemple.com/clients/b1.swf - it wasn't on the server first 2 months, now it is. I'm doing

this to protect my interrest and only to people I don't know and don't send me any advance payment.
I was cheated for $5000 only last year so this is something I did just to protect my content. I would never make it to affect my clients credibility. I'm a honest guy, working in the biz for more than 4 years, with more than 100 happy clients.

Anyway, I saw this thread, and told him I'm about to post on it. He suddenly responded, we were talking a bit, I asked him why he didn't answer any of my past icq messages, he told me I was on the ignore list (why?).
Then I thought "how come you responded (and fast) this time ?". Aaaah.. I should have known you clean that list from time to time.
Anyway, he started bullshitting me, saying he knew "the games are pulling 3d party software" , "there was shit in there from a romanian programmer" and things like this.

Everybody talks about russians, brazillians, romanians , how they cheat and steal content but there's the other side of the story too: it's easier to cheat the honest brazillians, romanians etc becuase THEY will be considered the cheaters anyway.

I don't expect any money from this person, I just want people to be cautious.

He paid us a 50% deposit on his order so he is good in my book

Man Jay, chill the hell out. I wasn't even in for a large part of the day. And if you saw my AIM loggin on then logging off really fast, it was probably my partner jumping on one of my computers for something or another. I wouldn't have told you to IM me if I wasn't interested in talking business with you.

Ok. I'm now in the process of moving 1 of our dedicated servers over to Chili Hosting, with more to follow I'm sure!

He's a pleasure to do business with, and seems to be far more friendly of a person than I am. His pricing is also excellent considering the 1 on 1 attention that he seems more than capable and willing to provide.

So far, so good! :thumbsup:

BTW: There are STILL a lot of opportunities to make some cash here folks. I'd really like to see as many of the things on my list get done by GWW members as possible. But, if things aren't spoken for by Monday March 21, I'll have to start hunting down some nameless strangers.

I FINALLY managed to meet up with DonMike online. What a nice guy! I bought 6 scenes right off to get a feel for what the content looks like. I can't wait to get them to take a look, but if the content is anything like the service, I have a feeling I'll be doing a lot of business with WWC!!!

There are a few other people that I keep missing, like Jay. Poor guy keeps msg me when I'm AFK. I work weird hours, so that probably doesn't help much....

ChiliHost has been INCREDIBLY helpful with the move over to the server I bought with him. Above and beyond the call of duty if anyone's looking for a host. I'm a royal pain in the ass too, with all the database stuff we do, modules that we need installed, etc. He's maintained his patience with me, which is a feat in and of itself worthy of recognition and praise....

To everyone else, if you see something on the list you'd like to take a shot at, let me know!
