Title: February Upload Program
Post by: leaf on February 01, 2006, 16:56
Wow... great new news for Fotolia.. Looks like the upload program worked... and they are continuing on in a way.

Here is a quote I got from Fotolia

"The January upload program has been a great success, tens of thousands of dollars are currently under distribution to the all photographer s who have participated in the program.

Since so many people asked that we continue on, we are happy to announce an even better February Upload Program. However, it will only run until February 28th and not a day more.

So hurry up and upload those images today.
Beginning February 1, 2006 Fotolia will pay 0.20 credits for EVERY image uploaded and accepted by our editing team. No thresholds, and a simple calculation: 1 accepted picture in Febuary = 0.20 credits for the photographer. As with the January Upload Program you must keep your images online for a minimum of 12 months.[More info]

It is our sincere hope that this will provide motivation to upload your images in bulk (even the smallest portfolios). The more quality and quantity photos you have on Fotolia now means more sales for you later.

Good luck and Happy uploading! "

I wonder what about the images I uploaded in Jan but just never got a chance to keyword...would that count?

I think that whenever you end up finishing them (the month you click on the little blue arrow and fill in the keywords and such), they will count in that month.

I would agree based on today's experience... photos I uploaded in Jan but didn't get around to finishing (blue arrow) had a tick box for the Feb. special offer.  I have not seen any sales but have about 115 shots so far accepted.

Sales still seem a little slow for me too actually (I am surprised that so many people have over 100 sales allready), but i have only had the bulk of my images for under a month.

However, the upload program is what makes it work getting them on there.  I think that is the way for a lot of people, and once they DO have the images.. very soon more than dreamstime even (if not allready) the buyers will come.
