I was wondering the same thing ;)

It was late, then I got busy with another project then i felt bad it was so late.  I can still start it if there is interest.

Very interesting!!!!  though I would have made changes in the questions:
 I only reflect my opinion but I think too many questions on istock and alamy are little outdated.

I think the main intrest is -

age
gender
full/part time at microstock
portfolio size
how many files uploaded this year
file types
where do you submit to (separately for video / images / illustration)
income
percentage of income by agency.

Glad to hear back Tyler.  You're allowed a life.   :)

The survey is always good reading tho, and the best view of the trends.  But it seems like a bunch of work for you.  Only bother if its worth your time.  Maybe make viewable only to members, or to those that filled out the questionaire?  Might make the extra work worthwhile for you.

Personally not interested in age or gender. Growth or otherwise from previous year and location would be interesting

Could be interesting the "kind of subject" too (people, architecture, landscape, food, etc.)

I'm not good with programming but I do stats for a living. If you'd like help compiling the data that come in, let me know.
