Thanks Misha. Yea, Google has tons of them. It's where I originally found the 3 I liked the most. Gaaahhh .. "adult industry materials"? Sheesh, what do you think I'll be shooting? :P 'chelle! Misha's picking on me again. He keeps looking at me and asking me if I know Annie Sprinkles personally. Dave - It's America ... land of the hungry lawyers. Wanted form to cover everything. There was one of the releases that specifically spelled out negatives and digital files. This one covers all that and any other way to have/store/make a photo with "said photographs, in whole or in part, modified or altered, either by themselves or in conjunction with other photographs, in any medium or form of distribution." Hmmm ... think I'll run my form by a lawyer just in case. If I get it ok'd up front, means I don't have to worry about it much from this point out. Of course, having signed contracts and agreements doesn't stop some people from suing you if they want to, but at least you have the document for your defense. Also, if I actually do make the switch to selling my stuff then I'll be joining the PPA (Professional Photographers of America) and they offer insurance resources. Thanks guys. -=>Donald
