I have been learning to program since the start of the year....long journey so far haha With my first game I just paid for a royalty-free song. The game only made a few dollars across NG and other portals, so this time around I figured I would reach out to the community while I am still an amateur programmer.
How much (percentage) of the ad revenue would you guys charge for one of your songs here on NG? I'm not talking about having to do the work to score for the game. I am talking about using one of your existing songs already on NG.
Just curious what you guys have to say. I'm from a film background and in the film industry - composers usually are paid 1-3% of the films budget (whether it's independent or Hollywood status). I don't have a budget - just a simple guy trying to make simple Flash games. So I look forward to seeing your responses. I've been told by a few artists that I could use their work for free - to just give them credit - but I know most of you are probably not like that (or am I wrong?).
