Title: Is inmagine also another micro site?
Post by: angel gab on July 25, 2008, 13:08

http://www.inmagine.com/

I am sure I've seen a home page similar in design, and even some of the featured photos.
Is this an affliation of another well known stock company?

Also, I wonder if it would be any different if we join one company who already is connected . Would there be an advantage of a wider market,
or just plain wasting time having to upload to both.

Yes, and they are considered macrostock.

Yes they're a macrosite, and they have the toughest acceptance rate of any site I'm on, by that I mean they're very focused on what content they want, which although fustrating at times is something I like.

THAT'S WHERE I SAW THE SAME FORMAT. thanks

danP68, so macro means they pay more, right?
no subs and pennies for beggars?
I must take a look. All I read quickly is minimum size 8MP, so that sounds serious. Good one thanks RT, Dan68, jsnover.

Any first hand experience? Any advice you can tell me about contributing to them? 
example: Do you all submit the same stuff with SS ?

Oh man it wouldn't even a good idea it they hadn't it in their contract.
It's not exclusive but you are not allowed to put the same or similiar stuff on a site with cheaper prices so all Micros and Mids and even some Macros are out - check their price!

hey thx grp_photo.
good to know this, at least your better images are going to get more money in return.
Still, not sure if this will last too long either.
Consider the news lately  with Getty IS Flickr ;
Photocom StockXpert.
Only thing we know is the marketplace is changing.
For the better or worse for us photographers and vector artists
