Title: Submitting Vectors?
Post by: THP Creative on May 03, 2012, 02:38
So as far as I know (please tell me if I'm wrong?) Alamy doesn't accept vectors. But does anyone submit raster versions of their vectors to Alamy?

Just wondering if I am missing out on an opportunity here by not having done that.

I submit mine, granted not all of them.  I don't do a lot of business there as I still have a relatively small port on that site.  But it doesn't hurt to try with them.

Do they take vector formats? I have to admit too; I didn't really understand them.

Just to clarify, do you mean you have RASTER versions of your vectors online there, or you have actually got vectors online? Thanks for your help anita

Rasters only over on Alamy.  I apologize for the confusion.  They would probably do a helluva lot more if they did take vectors but I don't see that happening any time soon.

Great, thanks Anita. Will give it a go :)

Yes I submit the raster versions of my Vectors to them and yes they do sell. I have not sell a lot in total there yet. Grew my port last month with about 100 rater versions of Vectors (now over 700 images), but sales are slow. Hope to see increase in next 3-4 months as most of my images will be there then for nearly 6 months (maturing time).
