YAHOOOOOO.... FIRST SYMBIO SALE!!!! Came on the same day I hit SS .33 level!!!
Purchased medium size for $24.99.
Funniest thing was I tried to get this to upload with a model release on GI, photographers choice where I have a couple of free slots. Never got it uploaded because I could not get the model release linked!!! Finally pulled it and put it up on my Symbio site 7/29. Feels better than almost ANY (thousands of dollars sales excluded of course!!) stock sale I've ever made through an agency as I keep 100%!!! [snipped extra text]

Taken from:
http://www.microstockgroup.com/symbiostock-general/woohoo-first-real-symbiostock-sale/msg341191/This is happening more, and is often not publicly reported.
A general formula:
If your used to high sales in microstock, you will have relatively high sales in Symbiostock (Though 100% "commission").
If your not used to high sales in microstock, sometimes its due to factors you can't control. Symbiostock gives you more control ends up being a mirror as to how the rest of the world sees you, allowing you an honest assessment to build on and improve on.
If your new to microstock, this should be something you look into so as to keep your fair chances for success (and control) higher.
Also this is not a self-promo. I really don't care if you buy the premium plugin or make me (as a head developer) much/any money. What open source needs is a giant community to "work out" properly. What the network needs and will cause everyone to thrive is a giant base of independents, and thus become a known source of imaging for professional designers / other markets. This will also make 100% commission on sales more common, and %80 losses to other "traditional" means of selling progressively more uncommon.
