Title: popular images to vetta or not to vetta.
Post by: VB inc on July 01, 2011, 12:08
Ive been seeing a lot of images with a lot of downloads go into the vetta collection. I am wondering if they are still successful as before. Thoses files have been in the istock library for awhile now and would have enough data history to figure out if getting put into vetta has paid off or not. I have no photos that can go into that collection but I just started to put some vectors on and im wondering if vettas worth it.

It gets more complicated with the new price filter.... decisions decisions...

Dont exagerate!  you always keep telling us you got plenty of Vettas. Cant see any of them. Oh well decisions, decisions for you. Maybe youre images arent good enough for Vettas.

I had 4 when the collection went live.I took them out because i thought the price too high.Now i have changed my mind because of the extra exposure the collection gets on Getty Images.I now have two...

I would imagine if a file sold well before going into the Vetta collection,it's a good indication of its usefulness,it would still continue to sell because it's still useful even at the higher price !

I doubt it. Its usefulness might suddenly end if the file becomes too expensive. Buyers seem to yell at even less expensive files.
