I feel weird commenting because we never talk anymore, but I figure I can help what with the art schooling and all that ( ... )

hahHaaaah, you're damn right we don't talk anymore, who is this again? :-P
I'm sorry, my memory is horrid, it should go to jail.

Anywho, thanks for the advice and the vote of confidence, me and this person actually reached a mutually beneficial agreement no sooner than an hour after I posted this, haw.

But thank you anyway! We should talk more!

Oh god, I don't even know if you'd remember me if I explained who I am. This is Sheila, I met you through a friend of mine named Lily. I live in San Diego? I don't know what else you would have known about me, haha.

Oh yesh, any friend of Lily's is a friend of mine :-P

If it's a start-up business, you should get paid per-piece. If it's a guaranteed ongoing affair, it would be more wise to get a contract.

A lot of people think that art isn't really a way to make money, and that it's an extra; that it doesn't matter... So a LOT of people will ask for art without ever considering money. Don't allow it. Ask to be paid. If they want your stuff badly enough, they'll pay you. Everyone will try to fuck you into getting stuff for free... Especially if they don't have the means. =D

He's hoping to make a profit off of your design. Of course you should be getting a cut of it!
