Please take a small moment to read this article.
Visitors often asked me if there would be a way to purchase a membership to remove the watermark and the lines from the pictures. Just as often I am asked if there would be a way to buy my xtube videos directly from me.
So far, I demured at doing offering these things. I act on a maxim by which I want to keep the site free of charge for you. For that I set a watermark and the lines in each picture.
Besides, I do not like to get into a dependence that forces us (or me) to publish a certain number of images each week , or a video every week.
But I also understand that you want to see pictures without the disturbing lines and watermark. Likewise, I understand the desire to purchase the videos without having to use xtube.
I think I’ve found a solution.
I continue to offer all pictures for free.
In return, these pictures, if these shows myself or created by me, have been like the lines, the watermark and the lower maximum resolution of 1280 pixels in height.
Membership as an alternative
But as an alternative I would like to offer you that you can download all my own pictures (not the re blogged. like Tumblr post, partner or promotional pictures) for a month at a specified price without watermark (or a much smaller watermark) and without lines. This offer would have to be renewed every month from you. – There would be no automatic recurring membership.
If you want no monthly membership, I would offer a one day membership.
Also these members could download all pictures as described above for a day.
Of course, the daily price in the ratio would be higher than the monthly price.
Finally, you could also download all pictures in one day. – Otherwise it would be unfair to those who purchase a monthly membership.
Therefore, buyers have of the month offer, the ability to download updates during the period of their membership.
I do not want to come under pressure
Because I do not want to come under pressure especially in videos, to make a weekly or at certain intervals a video, the offer for the videos would be getting a daily membership.
This involves only the videos that are already now and exclusively available for purchase at Xtube.
All other video remain free!
The videos were also not visible in the browser, but rather would have to be downloaded. So you have the videos directly on your computer and you can watch it again and again.
I do not want to do
But the whole thing I do not want to do, without you asking for your opinion.
For one thing I would like to ask you to write in the comments what you generally think of this possibility.
For another thing I would like to know what you are willing to pay you for this?
So I have added a small survey below
I would be thankful to you if you you would take five minutes to answer the survey and a brief comment.
What would be paid from the revenues, I have already formerly described at this point.
Thank you for taking the time to read this article, to comment it and vote .
