I saw those addresses on the web sites, but they didn't seem correct to me for some reason.

Is SS really in NY?

As for 123RF, I'm not looking for the parent corporation (Inmagine), but the actual location of 123RF itself. For some reason I thought that it was located in Europe. Is it really in Hong Kong?

Not sure where the actual work force is (if there are many at all) but I assume it is located in HK as HK only taxes local income (I think). therefore all income from the rest of the world would be tax free.

Agree that the locations in NY dont look right for where their servers etc are located.

SS is definitely located in NY. I met Setho a few months ago and asked.

For some reason, I don't think that Chad, Eugenie, or the others are in NY.

FT have offices in NY, London, Paris, Germany and probably a few other european countries as well.

Their Beta site actually started up in France when they hit 300,000 images in November 2005 they expanded to different countries with different languages.

I know some of my images will be reviewed first in London and some will get a second opinion in NYC.

Yea I read that too. It said that all of there employees work from home. Or maybe it said most of their employees. Either way, they must have a location for there servers.
