Never heard of them and doing a search on the sort of images that I sell I didn't recognize any of the images. Lots of blown out images that would never get accepted anywhere that I upload to. Would be interested to find out more about them.

All I know is that they have a physical presence in London, which is better than nothing.
Try looking for "W1F 9NZ" on Google Streets.

I may have a look the next time I'll be in London in a month or two. Or if someone happens to be in Soho...

The reason I asked, is because I received a message in my inbox from ASMP saying that Alamy is cutting royalties by 10% and that Image Source has announced that they will be offering a royalty rate of 60% for all imagery produced in North America, through Dec 31st 2013.

I have read their acceptance requirements a few days back and Cant even apply. They only accept FF Pro cameras and 50mb jpgs. (they actually mean tiffs)

they haven't tweeted for new stuff since nov 24.

They are part of Getty?(they require contributors to use Getty releases) how odd to call your site IS....

Exclusive only.

Image Source is image exclusive. They are looking for lifestyle type imagery. Here's what they said when I applied....

Thank you for your interest in Image Source. I've had a look at your work and I am afraid that its not the right fit for us at this time. What we're hearing from our clients and distributors is that they want imagery that is more authentic, less posed, slice of life. I am not seeing a lot of that on your website. In addition, any content accepted into the Image Source library has to be exclusive to us.
