Always happy to see a new channel.  I don't have zip on editorial, but I know that AP uses stock-related imagery all the time.  Just wish they would have chosen a better agency than FT.

Didn't know that Fotolia had either editorial or rights managed images? Musta missed it.

Edit: My mistake. Misread it!

Starting today, AP Images customers will be able to buy editorial, rights-managed and royalty-free images, including millions from Fotolia, on APImages.com, solidifying its standing as the industry’s first one-stop-shop for all imagery needs.

This arrangement is for RF images, and AFAICS, not particularly editorial.

Great!  Hope to see my sales there increase then :)

I haven't seen any of mine there.   I don't participate in subscription sales at Fotolia.   Perhaps that's the reason?   

I did try subscription for a few weeks, but it only came to pennies per photo, with not much volume.   I have some files that sell for multiple dollars on Fotolia.

Really wish AP had picked a better company than Fotolia.   :-\

Make sure you click the MicrostockRF tab at the top before you try to search for your stuff.

I also didn't think my stuff was there, but then clicked that tab, and they started showing up in searches. 

Will be interesting to see if this makes a difference.  I've noticed my sales sagging at FT lately.
