Oh yes! I forgot to mention that.
Payment will be issued to the artists of sprites. Depending on the quality, quantity, and style. At first there will be a credit system used for building up reference information, but once we get enough crew to actually put this into a forward-moving process, payment will begin. I've budgeted 30 dollars a week to employee salary, and transfers will be made through paypal or another reliable medium. Whatever is not spent that week will be carried over into the next week. You will only be paid when you create a sheet, and we're hoping for at least one sheet a week, thus you could be paid up to 30 dollars in one week if you are the only one who submits anything and it's of good quality. Certain bonuses can be added to payment, such as creativity, adaptability, and constructability, as well as some other surprise ones that may occur if you are able to incur them. Every year there will be an annual 'special project competition' where you will be competing with your fellow spriters to create the most accurate and ideal sheet of whatever character in question. The reward for this sheet may range from 50 to 100 dollars, but it will only be given to the winner of the competition.
Payment will only be given upon completion and fulfillment of a sheet. If a sheet is sub-par, you will be asked to change it to a proper workable style. Refusal to do so will lessen the amount paid.
The problem though, may be legality, as paying someone other than the creators of the character in question might be improper. However, unless I am told otherwise by an official legal source, I will pursue the method of payment as originally planned.
Remember though that I will require a slightly professional attitude when dealing with the workings of the 'job', as is proper with most formal endeavors. Treat me as you would a real boss, and your co-workers as you would your real co-workers. I'd like things to remain civil and 'non-stupid'.
Trolling will not be tolerated, period, neither will indecent images, or insulting material. Condesending attitudes will, as usual, be frowned upon and will hurt your chances of gaining proper 'levels' in the endeavor.
So there you have it. Your work will be paid.
