Title: Fotolibra
Post by: Seren on May 05, 2008, 02:10

Does anyone here submit to Fotolibra?  I'm seriously contemplating buying the £6 a month membership and uploading all my grandfathers slides, negs and prints.

Any thoughts?

More importantly any sales?

I'd really like to support them, being a British / Welsh company and all that.  It would be nice to see earnings in my own currency!

Do you have to pay for uploading or I missunderstood?

I took out a free membership (which entitles you to upload an amazing 12 images) but no way am I paying to have them display more photos ... for uncertain sales.

Never had the slightest interest from anyone on the 12 I've uploaded, and it was probably 4-5 years ago I signed up.

From what I can gather it's mostly photographers who can't get their photos placed anywhere else ... so they can say "I'm with an agency."

Just do a search on 'dog' for example, and see what you come up with. I don't know what they do to their photos, but the colours make me feel quite ill.
