Re: Question About Customer Contact

Amy & Celeste, Thank you both for your information and insight. However, I'm back with another question. I received the private request and it's actually very specific content they're looking to put on a web site related to their business. With this type of request, am I allowed to send drafts t...

Re: ALERT! ARTICLES STOLEN

I've been looking through the site and I recognize a lot of content. It seems to me that they're copying everything on CC. I've checked all of my articles and every one of them is on this site. I want to caution everyone that it takes a while to find them...I had to go through pages and pages, even ...

Re: ALERT! ARTICLES STOLEN

Yep! I checked one of mine and it was there also. I'll be checking the rest immediately. Since I'm still new here, what sort of recourse do we have? I noticed at the bottom of the site, they indicate to let them know of any infringement and they will delete immediately. Should we do that as indivdua...

Question About Customer Contact

I submitted an article I already had on CC that I thought might meet a customer's request. The customer responded and thanked me for the submission but indicated she was looking for something more specific. She indicated she liked the tone and style of my writing and asked if I would submit more. Sh...

Submission of Existing Article

Hi All,

I have a quick question regarding submitting an article already in My Content for a request. How do you go about doing that? I'm certain I saw the information somewhere before, but of course, I can't find it when I need it.

Thanks.

My Content Page

As a CC newcomer, there is one area I've found that I think could be improved. In the column on the My Content page that shows the number of "hits" an article has received, it would be great if there was a way to separate those hits by who has looked at them. If the site could record wheth...

Re: Changes Made in Article with Use License

I just had to stop back and let you know that my title was changed also. Again, it's a relatively minor issue, but I'm still a bit miffed! Now I've got a minor grammar change and a title change in a word that was purchased for use.

Aaaarrrrgh! :evil:

Re: Changes Made in Article with Use License

Evelyn, Thanks so much for your kind words and informative reply. I guess it's really not that big of an issue, except for the fact that if they'd wanted to make any changes they should have probably purchased a different license. I'm not going to make too big of an issue about the situation, but I ...

Changes Made in Article with Use License

Good Morning Everyone, I just sold my second article for use and found it on used on a website. However, I noticed that there had been a minor gramatical change made to the article, that really wasn't correct. I was under the impression that other than adding links, there were not to be any changes ...

Re: Just stopping by to say hi

Hi Mandy, Welcome to CC! I'm new here, as well. I've been here around 3 weeks, and I absolutely love it. I'm ecstatic that I found CC and plan to be here a long time. It sounds like you feel the same. The urge to get that first sale under your belt can be overwhelming, especially for us newbies, but...

Re: Measurements?

Hi Barry,

Thanks for your response. I really appreciate your comments regarding being a bit less precise with the measurements, because that's certainly an option in my case.

I guess I'll just have to take my chances and see what the editor decides :)

Regards,
Lori

Measurements?

Does anyeone know the rules when it comes to writing measurements in an article? I've seen it done so many different ways, I'm not certain what's correct. I tried looking it up, but am still getting conflicting information. Let's say I'm writing the following: Options are available in sizes ranging ...

Weekend Reviews?

Hi Everyone, This question may have already been answered on the boards before, but I did a cursory check and couldn't find it. My first article was accepted (yay me) and I submitted two more this weekend. Do the editors routinely review any submissions over the weekend or must I wait for Monday? An...
