I don't think Getty is considered to be microstock.
To me it's all about collections. One good image can be priced 1$ in one collection and $1000 in another, but this is not valid for weak photos We can find thousands of images in microstock exactly looking like this in the Stocksy's curated collection(or Offset...),but to find all them together will cost for one client so much time that he will always pay more but to look at tightly edited collection.
I think the lines between macro and micro are getting sufficiently blurred that the forum can start dealing with more traditional macro sites in any case.
Leaf, please share your thoughts about this. Thanks!

I had had people ask for Getty before so perhaps I should give in and add it to the list. I agree the lines between the sites are sufficiently blurred that there is no strict 'macro' or 'micro' site anymore.

I think it would be great, if we could see how many people entered data for an agency. Maybe as a small number in brackets behind the name?So it becomes easy to see, how many more people are needed to include an agency further up, or just to see how many people are interested.Also higher top income levels for the full timers.
Wouldn't it be more accurate if the poll did not ask for total revenue, but rather for RPI per month? That would include portfolio size in the answer and probably show a more realistic picture.

I reminded Leaf and he has added it now. It would be interesting to see where it will place within this current list.

I didnt notice it when completing my poll. I would add my eyeem sales and any istock/getty sales if they happen. I would also enter it twice for eyeem, until their own marketplace takes off and I can separate the two marketplaces.wouldnt be scientific, but it gives an indication where the money is actually coming from.
