Monday, 12 May 2008 @ 16:19

What has everyone heard on this one? I was forwarded some information about this proposed bill from a friend working as an illustrator in California. The proposed bill looks as though it applies to all visual arts. The short of it seems to say that if someone can’t find a credit for your work either on print or on the internet, that they can take it and use it as they like. I’m curious what everyone else’s take is on this. Here are a couple links to more comprehensive information on it:

job announcement form no longer requires account

Sunday, 19 October 2008 @ 18:50

I am pleased to announce that the job announcement form on the website no longer requires the user to be logged in. This is significant as most people posting job announcements are managers, human resources staff, or recruiters and therefor have no reason to have an account. If you are someone that only created an account to post a job, please send me a note so that we can remove your profile.
