Will it have a skinnable front end?

Oh btw.. does anyone know what the go is with licensing pics? Just say you're selling snoopdog ringtones are you able to use certain pics like say off the cd cover? Cause rolling stone or whoever took the others you might find would hold copyright...

You have to pay for the use of images just as you have to pay for the ringtones.

just say you've got a feeder page and you add posters and cd's to sell as well.. you'd think you'd be able to use the images on the cd's and posters...

And its a bitch to get licensed pics of an artist.. you cant just grab any pics and pay a FUF. Maybe ringtone provider companies have a solution for this by now. Been out of the mobile business for 3 years now.

Usually the CD image isnt sufficient/useless as promo material.

Posters are a different league.. unless you actually sell them they are simply unlicensed content.

We did midrange 6 figures in 2001 on ringtones. Basicly every $1000 popped had a 10k return. (europe.. pay by phone) but the administration requirements made it simply impossible to continue our business. There are only a few companies in the world that have setup contracts with the many labels and organisations to provide hassle-free ringtones + overall content. Its a real bitch and if ONLY i pushed a little harder before shit started hitting the fan.. ahhhh.

Monthly that is.. ;)

Considering the amount of mobile phones and apps that are available today
Pimpdog is making a smart move if combined with the right payment model.

If you're serious about getting into the ringtone business, please contact me and tell me what you are offering. I have a great deal with a mainstream company right now.

It was a stupid question that i basically knew the answer to.. but i had a silly idea im dancing around with the question. I think if you had a ref link to the ringtones, the cd and the poster at allposters all given equal prominence you should be able to use the main poster image.. but probably not in the format im thinking. *shrugs*

Is it a front end for Ian's company? Either way, when the program is ready, let me know or post it on here. I'm shopping around for particularly a program to hit the UK market with. I have a great deal with US based market but could always use more...

I didn't realize it was a secret, sorry. Either way, I didn't post the company name so (most) people won't know anyways.
