there is something that I do not understand...   :o
There are 204 people who are working full time in this industry (about 29%),
but only 7% said that microstock are the primary source of income...

I don't understand it either :)  I'll have to see if I can figure out how that 'happened' when I look closer at the numbers next week.

I can't remember if I technically counted myself as full time in the questionnaire, I remember thinking about the question, and maybe said No (see below); but I'm early-retired, and my micro income doesn't match my superannuation. Other people could be in a similar position, and said they were full-time microstockers in that they don't do any other paid work, but their pension could still be more than they earn on micro.

Also there's the question as to whether Alamy counts as micro on that questionnaire. I noticed there was a separate question, but again wondered whether dividing shooting time between Alamy and micro meant you couldn't be a full-time microstocker, which if I said 'No' was the reason.

I thought it was easier the other way.
Working part-time and have the microstock as a primary source of income.

or maybe I was hoping ...  :-[

Nice Leaf, thanks!
I'd be interested to know: Of the 7% who consider it their primary income, how many are independent and how many are exclusive?
