Hello, I live in Indonesia, design & photograph is my specialization. But for photograph I can't afford, so I wanted to know if anyone can help me how can I get money online by making logo design? I take about 5-15 days to make simple logo design & 15-30 days to make awesome logo design, also take more +30 days to make complex design. I don't want my logo design are sell 100% but I'd like to get commission every month too by using my logo. So did some one can tell me how to make it true?

I don't know if i believe you are Indonesian. You need to get your pictures in the web for starters. There are free web posting sites like photobucket.com out there. Use them. you will cut and paste the address (from the address bar) to your advertising in the future, so people can see your work. Or you can advertise through a classifieds adds site like kajiji or craigslist. If your communications skill is really that limited you won't want to be worried about collecting "royalties" (constant commission money) on your work just yet. Start by selling the logo outright. If they really are logos then the business that is using them will want to own them outright anyhow. You can copyright your work but I don't see how that work would be sold to a business if they cannot have full ownership of it. If you are really taking that much time to do a logo, you need to find a way to get faster no mater how good it looks. It can be done. Go for it.

As has been pointed out you will have to sell the full rights of the logo to the company that buys it – any customers will not stand for a commission payment every month. Instead of working on just a logo you should be looking at the full corporate identity, applying the logo and other information to letterheads, business cards, vans (if applicable) every situation that a client might use a logo for. Clearly I cannot tell how much or what you are offering, however, 5-15 days is a long time to create a simple design, small to medium sized companies will not be prepared to spend a huge amount of money for their logo design.

America, where are we going as a society? As a country? Is the America of today, the America you envision in..

America, where are we going as a society? As a country? Is the America of today, the America you envision in..
your mind? Is it the America of high ideals, fairness, equality? Or is greed taking over America? How many items from China do we import? Malaysia, Indonesia, Taiwan, Mexico, Honduras? Japan and Korea, soon to be joined by China, all but kicking the crap out of Detroit and the auto industry. Jobs going overseas for more profit, imports and illegals flooding the country driving wages down and the cost to our social system up. At least half of the ingredients used to make our medicine is imported from China, with absolutely no quality control, yet investors love the profit. Our meat? Who knows, less then one percent inspected. IRS reports middle income folks, income down two percent over the last two years. The top one percent made twenty one percent of the money in this country. I wonder what the top ten percent totals? In all its greatness, are you satisfied or dissappointed with today's America?

There are many who feel that one of the goals of the Bush administration, and many other Republicans, is the dismantling of American public safeguards that were put in place many years ago. EPA, FDA, USDA, FEMA, Social Security if they could... all suffered staffing cuts by attrition that caused the remaining staffers to be unable to fulfill the role of their agency. The only thing we lack to bring the standards back is to replace the ve-toad that sits in the White House with a real president that cares about Americans..

As much as I hate to admit it… I’m disappointed. It seems “it” is just a game anymore… nobody seems to care that people in our own country are flying flags prouder than my own It seems because I am proud of my country, proud of the great accomplishments my countrymen have brought to the forefront of civilization, I still feel the need to apologize - to someone… Apparently, nice guys do finish last.

Everything you said is so true. Sadly, this is not the America my parents and grandparents wanted for their children. My 87 year old father is still hear to tell me stories of what the United States truly once was.

It really depresses me to see how far we, the United States of America, have fallen. Gone are the days of Ozzie and Harriet, good neighbors helping neighbors, mom and pop stores,where everyone knows everyone else by name. We live in a selfish, money driven society, where the good ole dollar, has replaced GOD. We mock our Creator, even though He has blessed us beyond messure. We ignore the fact that our very own Declaration of Indepedence was based on the Ten Commandments, our Bill of Rights are now used against us. We are loosing RIGHTS at an alarming rate...not only Reps, but Dems as well. If certain people get elected into office, we will be like a cold-war Socialist country...the Government CANNOT run everything. But there is still hope, we may have fallen but we can still get back up. The American Dream is dying, but not dead...we need some sincere American Patriots who vote, and get involved in their government to make things right. It starts in the home, the Church, and the school. If we all work together, NOW, our kids will have a better future for tomorrow: more jobs, less imports; more jobs will also equal less public assistance and abuse of that assistance...more jobs mean more people paying taxes so we won't NEED another tax hike! And we need to turn back to God, and repent of our greedy and sinful ways...and seek Him in faith. Then He will heal our hearts and our lands and all will be well again. Thanks for the question!

I'm very disappointed greed has taken over..... is not good enough to do well in the country big corps want to take over the world <walmart> destroying the creativity of each american there is plenty for everyone......... keep the jobs in america and export goods not import all goods and americans dont have jobs

My feelings? Freedom of Speech? What's up with the "zones" that our glorious Dubya has created, in order to hide protesters from view at political events? About 44 million people in this country have no health insurance, and another 38 million have inadequate health insurance. Because of that, many of these people will postpone necessary care and forego preventive care which leads to ultimately higher health care costs for all of us.

Muslim, Do you only buy Halal labeled food?

Muslim, Do you only buy Halal labeled food?
I am in Indonesia, and most people in here is Muslim but unfortunately not all of Muslims in Indonesia think it's important to only choose Halal certificated food Many Muslims in here, but to make halal certification is not a must. Food companies can choose, will they make halal certificate to their products or not. And companies should spend much money to get halal certificate I think All companies don't wanna get lost. They will think, Why should make halal certificate in Indonesia but Muslims in Indonesia don't think it's important? Anyone from Indonesia can help me to campaign to only choose halal certificated food? So All food companies will make halal certificate to their products

E-mail me and tell me how I can help you sister. I'm not from Indonesia but I would love to help in your campaign. Sometimes what happens is that halal food being halal either is not reasonably priced or people try to take advantage of the fact that the seller is a Muslim and try to make negotiations. We must learn to be fair to our brothers and sisters and Islam says to people "pay your worker before his sweat dries" which means asap. So sometimes corporation's take the easy way out and would rather not get halal food. This is no problem in the states however, it is a problem with other material things though. Asalamu-Alaikum

sallam sister sorry cannot help here, but i think it is getting better, i space on one of your other question , i will answer tomorrow inshalla, must go to sleep very late. Good night w sallam sister in Islam.

in Malaysia, not all Halal food is labeled and not all Halal-labelled food is actually Halal. so it is wise for us to know the sources of our food. for example, McDonalds and KFC can be deceiving us, we dont know. its our job to find out what we eat. and its also a consumer's right. more often, when we doubt the food, we should avoid taking it. when i was in UK and france, Halal-labelled food is very important there but that doesnt mean i'll eat everything labelled Halal. so eating fish instead is great, and when choosing instant burgers or pizzas, i picked the ones for vegetarian. and when choosing cakes and chocolates, its easy to read the ingredients, as long as it doesnt contain anything suspicious.
4 :
I'm from Indonesia, but unfortunately I also don't care too much with the "halal" certificate because I live in Muslims neighborhood. But of course if I travel to non-muslims neighborhood just like Bali or Manado, then I seek for the "halal" certificate.
5 :
We have everything labelled 'Halal' in Saudi Arabia. Still I prefer food stuffs that are locally made and get a slaughtered chicken before my eyes mostly or the one done by Saudi Companies. I never got one that comes from Brazil or France. In Islam you don't have to investigate so much. Everything is Halal if not proven otherwise. But Just because I don't know how far 'Halal' are those meats coming from those countires like 'Brazil'.

what title should I put on my business card?

what title should I put on my business card?
I am a third year university student looking for part time work as a columnist for international lifestyle magazines or weekend newspapers, but at the moment I barely have a professional network to refer me to jobs. In Jakarta, Indonesia, it seems that having personal connections to prospective employers is far more important than having the right skills and qualifications for it. Anyway, I do not want to wait until I actually get a fixed job somewhere, because that might take ages, so I've decided to start freelance. I am still attending classes at the university, so a job that requires me to be at an office 9-to-5 plus extra work on the evenings might not work anyway. But I am free Tuesday-Thursday from 13.00 till evening, and Friday before 14.30, and I should be able to produce a lot of money-making work in those times. I am a very good writer in many subjects, proficient in English and proper Indonesian--those skills alone are actually in demand, and not many people in Jakarta actually have them at the level I do. In addition to that, I speak 5 Indonesian dialects, fluent Dutch, and understand most western European languages at a basic level. I am especially good at inspirational writings on daily life, reporting current happenings with depth and reflection, and also attractively packaging subjects (music, events, hangout places, products) with a strong branding and marketing message. I'm also a good essayist. Given these qualities, I'm convinced that Jakarta has a place for me as a professional writer, but I don't know many prospective employers and have not published any material in the mass media thus far (apart from a personal blog mainly read by people who know me.) OK, so here's the deal. I want to spend the next couple of months establishing my professional reputation as a journalist, but I have no professional affiliation or published works yet to show for. What do title do I put on my business card? What questions should I anticipate, and how do I explain them? In the meantime, what can I do to expand my network as fast as possible and get somewhere in my career (i.e. some reasonable in between steps I should aim for)? I want to write for Esquire, Maxim, TimeOut, Elle, or Harper's Bazaar... but in the meantime I really would write anywhere for experience, and hopefully some reasonable pay too. Any tips?
