I've gone and done it! (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5950066966)
Someone spank me now! It's all fun and it's worth a shot no?
But this is just not any HEAD auction...there is more than meets the guy. I offered advertisement in a future film of mine. ;)

Good luck. If you get a lot of money, will you place some dollar bills on my forehead?

Remember the "naked guy" that was running around at one of the colleges in CA a few years back.. (early 90s I think)
Imagine if he'd have done this.. he could have sold damn near ever square inch of himself. Except what the washcloth covered.

I ask again ...
I am thinking of selling advertising on my naked body. How much do you think I could get for that?

My latest film is coming out around the 25th of this month and she's in it as well. It's a 50's detective film noir entitled, NightBeat (http://phillipsfilms.mrolaf.com/films/badge/index.php)
Thanks for the good wishes guys! Hopefully something will happen big with this. If it does it's going to produce my feature length film. ;)

Cool stuff.
I've actually been formulating a way to help fund the 3D animation feature I'm working on. I need to get 3 3D MAX 6 stations, 2 Combustion 3 stations, and possibly a Flint, Flame, or Inferno rental. The plan for the movie is awesome and the first 4 episodes, about 20 to 30 min is ALL action... We're working on a teaser now.
Here's an UNTEXTURED Commander's battle armour. :yes:
I personally didn't, but one of the guys in the group did... everything is all original all MAX models are totally created anime style... the dude does awesome work and they are all boned from the thrusters on the fighters to the missle turrents on the ships.. everything is boned. Check out one of his other projects http://symphonyofsteel.com Site is a little broken BUT you can see some of his work. :yes:

Might be time to give it another try, HailKing.
This is the latest Ebay name-branding auction picked up...
Woman Sells Her Name on EBay for $15K
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SEYMOUR, Tenn. (AP) -- A mother of five put her name up for bid on eBay and got an offer. Terri Iligan, 33, sold her name to Internet site Golden Palace Casino, and she will officially be named goldenpalace.com once the legal work is complete.
The casino paid $15,199 for the name.
Iligan said she got the idea when she found out how much it would cost to send one of her children, ages 4 to 10, to a golf school Tiger Woods attended.
``To my kids and to my husband, I will always be Terri. My husband is real supportive,'' she told WATE-TV in Knoxville. ``He thinks it's funny. As long as they get to call me mom, they don't care.''

Yet another E-bay auction for a namechange.
Even if it doesn't work, people are still getting newswire exposure. Gotta make the big bucks somehow, I guess. :)

Utah Man Selling Naming Right on EBay
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Filed at 9:12 a.m. ET
UINTAH HIGHLANDS, Utah (AP) -- Matthew Jean Rouse doesn't like his middle name and he's letting you pick a new one. The 31-year-old father of two is selling the naming right on eBay.
The ``Buy It Now'' price is $8,000. As of early Monday, there had been a total of 30 bids, with the high bid $2,175.
The winning bidder gets to choose a new middle name for Rouse, a software engineer.
Rouse also agrees to use his middle name ``whenever plausible and not hide it.''
``If he wants to walk around with 'Fool' as his middle name, that's his problem,'' said Rouse's wife, Corinna Rouse. ``If someone changes his name to 'Poophead,' he may decide it's a little more important than he thought.''
Rouse's middle name was taken from his late grandfather, Jean Stelter, with whom he didn't get along.
His older brother, Bill Rouse, 46, of Mesa, Ariz., bid $1,500 for the name. ``Basically, he's trying to dump our grandfather's name, and I'm trying to buy it and make it stay as it is,'' Bill Rouse said.
