DREAM FORGE (tm) is a monthly emagazine for a thinking and literate 
readership.  Dream Forge, Inc. is seeking Official DREAM FORGE
Distributors (ODFDs) throughout cyberspace.  The ODFDs will sell 
individual copies of the current issue (and back issues) of DREAM 
FORGE to their callers on a pay-by-download basis.

The list price of individual DREAM FORGE issues is $2.95.  (All 
amounts are in US dollars.)  As additional online sales technologies
become available, the ODFDs will be encouraged to offer DREAM FORGE 
using these new techniques.
   
Responsibilities of ODFDs:

  1) Make DREAM FORGE available to their callers using any
     available online sales technology (e.g. sale by download).
     The ODFD warrants that all DREAM FORGE downloads will be
     counted and paid for on a monthly basis.

  2) Promote the availability of DREAM FORGE to all callers
     during the logon process.

  3) Resolve any customer complaints related to obtaining
     DREAM FORGE from their system (i.e. broken archives,
     aborted downloads, etc.).  Dream Forge, Inc. will assume
     no liability for any such problems, other than replacing
     any broken DREAM FORGE archive sent to the distributor's
     system by the publisher.

  4) Provide a monthly report to the publisher showing the
     download count for each DREAM FORGE issue carried by the
     system.

  5) Remit the publisher's share (60%) of all DREAM FORGE sales 
     to the publisher promptly on a monthly basis.  Any credit 
     card or transaction processing fees incurred in selling 
     DREAM FORGE are strictly the responsibility of the ODFD.
     If an ODFD chooses to sell DREAM FORGE for a discount, the 
     publisher's share remains 60% of the official list price 
     of the magazine ($1.77/copy at the list price of $2.95).

  6) Provide a complimentary account on the ODFD system for
     the use of DREAM FORGE staff.  The account need not have
     any sysop privileges, except that it should allow DREAM
     FORGE staff to view the current download counts for all
     DREAM FORGE issues being sold.  The account should have
     all upload and download privileges normally offered to
     those with "free, shareware uploader" status.

Benefits for ODFDs:

  1) The ODFD retains 40% of all DREAM FORGE sales ($1.18/copy 
     sold at a list price of $2.95) made, less any transaction 
     fees incurred (see #5 above).  The ODFD also retains any 
     time based fees incurred by any user as they download the 
     emag.  
     
  2) The right to advertise their system as an Official DREAM
     FORGE Distributor.  A logon screen may be (indeed, should
     be) displayed to all callers so identifying the system.

  3) A listing in each DREAM FORGE issue identifying the ODFD,
     including System name, primary data telephone number, 
     number of lines, and location of system (City/state/country).

  4) A 20% discount on any advertising purchased in DREAM FORGE
     to advertise the ODFD system, or any products or services
     offered by the firm that owns the ODFD.  This discount is
     cumulative with any other applicable discounts.

  5) A 40% discount on a display subscription to DREAM FORGE for
     the ODFD system.  Applies only to a prepaid annual 
     subscription, and is not cumulative with any other offers.
     (e.g. The operators of a 100 line BBS that is an ODFD will 
     pay $597/year to display DREAM FORGE to their callers rather 
     than the normal fee of $995.)
