iStock isn't the only game in town — it competes with other Web sites trying to woo stock photography dilettantes. Other large suppliers that will help you pawn your pictures include Dreamstime.com, Shutterpoint.com and Stockshop.com.

Who are "stockshop.com" ?

yeah that was a surprising list of 'large suppliers' to me too.  What happened to dreamstime, stockxpert and fotolia???  Looks like someone didn't do their research.
