I tell the customer flat out that there is a limit of the number of copies of each photo they can reproduce depending on how much they pay me, if they want more they pay more and I note it on the release that goes with them so Wal Mart knows theres a limit. I went in got a copy of Wal Marts release then made the changes I needed for the amount of copies.

Anyway, today a client called me and said that the people at Wal*Mart would not give them their pictures without a release from me. I handled it but got thinking about how this will affect other clients........

Do you have to give a release for each digital cd you sell? (Disk was sold with hi-res images) If so, how do I make it that they have right to have the images printed but yet I still have full control of what I want to do with these images (website, portfolio, etc)

What is the best way to go about this?
