I have a lot of older 640x480pix images and also many 1280x960pix that are pretty good but too small for almost all sites (BigStock and StockXpert still accept 1.2Mpix, I think, but only they).

I thought of doing collages of images of the same subject, maybe also with the travel ones doing like a postcard with two or three of them together.

Are such images generally accepted?  Do they sell?

Regards,
Adelaide

I think these became popular on shutterstock a little while back, and then they said 'no collages' when it starte getting out of hand. -- as far as i can remember anyhow, but i am not sure what the current opinion is.

Not sure about whether they are still accepted but at SS when the fad hit, lots of people said 25c is too small for one photo, let alone 2 or more.

They did appear to sell well.  Some people even just put white lines to create a grid to give things a more "finished" product. THese get rejected now definately if they only contain one photo.

I have submitted a collage to some sites.  IS, StockXpert and LO rejected it.  DT and BigStock are in queue. 



I think I shouldn't have added a title - this was one reason for LO.  IS said it was more a final design, not a stock image

Regards,
Adelaide

I think on DT may accept it, but without the text. Just my opinion...
Good luck, Adelaide  :)
