Title: Stockxpert's 'Opinion needed on subscriptions' thread
Post by: Randomway on April 01, 2009, 17:26

I was wondering what others thought of an idea being proposed at Stockxpert.

I'd like to see the size of sub images reduced, but I'm not sure about the change to opt-in. I know some folks here are currently opted out of the subscriptions plan. Do you think it would be a good trade off?

I added to the discussion there. I always thought about a number of credits available / day instead of a number of images... Thanks for having linked this thread Randomway!

I don't like that.  I hate subs.

Vonkara, I hadn't read your post there, and I made a similar suggestion.  IS subs is the only type I consider edible.

I vote for the file size restriction.

I think by restricting the file sizes, many contributors may opt in voluntarily.

Freedom,

They meant to make trade: limiting sizes but forcing opt-in.

Adelaide

Adelaide, I know, I was only agreeing to Part 1. I also agree with you that they should consider the IS model since they are all under Getty now.

I also think it's fair for us contributors. that is  restricting the size.

I really hope that they change it.  I am opted in anyway so it can only be good for me. I hate selling large sizes so cheaply so this will make it much more acceptable.
