« One more TOU graphic to share! | Main | Cutest TOU graphic I've seen »

Freebie TOU notification for download

Have you been to Taran Conyer's site recently?  TKWhimsy.com.  She has a section for freebies, and once you click on that tab, you see an image of the beautiful freebie she has available.  Then you click on the image to download the freebie.

But.Nopiracy

First, a graphic pops up (click on graphic to view larger) that explains that the freebie is not to be redistributed, used for commercial use, or claimed as your own.  It goes on to explain why piracy sucks.  LOL.

A prompt box asks, "Do you agree to our terms?" 

If you choose "yes," then the download starts.

If you choose "cancel," then the box says "You must agree to download product."

I LOVE IT, TARAN!!!  She has given me permission to post this here to share with other designers this option for freebie distribution.  She said, "The pop-up piracy graphic is something that my 'webguy' said wasn't TOO hard... it's just a pop-up dialog code."  So if you are interested in doing this, I'm sure either you or YOUR "webguy" can figure it out!!!

Oh I would love to have the script if I could. I also offer free graphics on my site and have had to resort to putting a screen across the preview and asking them to email me when they want one but it's a royal pain. LOL
Thanks so much,
Tina C.

this is awesome!

i'm not sure i will do the pop up (not sure i know how) but i was thinking we could include something like this as an "additional image" in the zen cart. :)

ABOUT FREEBIES:

  • Just becuase it was free, doesn't mean you can do anything you want with it.
    "FREEBIES ARE GIVEN FROM THE VENUE OF THE ARTIST'S CHOOSING IN ORDER TO GENERATE TRAFFIC TO THEIR PLACE OF BUSINESS. PRE-EMPTING THAT STEP NOT ONLY HURTS THEIR BUSINESS AND VIOLATES THEIR Terms of Use, BUT IS ILLEGAL AND VIOLATES US COPYRIGHT LAW."
    (quoted from Miki from Microferk Designs. )
