I am curios has anyone tried Clustershot? If so what do you think and have you had any success?

http://www.microstockgroup.com/new-sites-general/clustershot-com/

I have been trying to log into my cluster pro account all day, but no go. The home page shows up ok but that's all. Sent a message to support but no answer yet. Is anyone else having problems with clustershot? Thanks!

Login works fin here.

Thanks, it's working ok again. Has anybody been able to sell anything there or been successful in integrating it with their personal photo web site?

I am trying some integrations (I mentioned them in the thread of Cascoly - IPTC) but I have a full wish list for them. They could be a great platform for independents if we could link our ports together in a way and confine the searches to the members of the group. But I can't tell much now. No sales.
We should at least agree about a common price point, and it should have at least 2 sizes: web and full, or they will end up like MostPhotos.

Sounds like a good idea... worth pursuing. Have you contacted them about your wish list?

Not yet. I doubted if anybody is interested, and the integration work would take a lot of time.

Thanks for sharing those ideas. I like the concept of Clustershot, but it needs some work, such as multiple sizes for sale, better upload (this webdav thing does not work too well for me), more configuration options, etc. At 20.- I figured it is worth a try for a year.

Sorry to be late to the party.

We are interested. We have a planned set of features that would do some of what you're looking for. Without getting into much detail we're working out a way for anyone to put together any collection of images under their own "site". It would be like one of our pro-stores but for any collection of images. We have a number of steps to make and dependent features to build before that can become a reality bit it is in our plans.

Multiple sizes isn't in our plans.

What do you mean by "integration work"?

Cheers!
Dan

Thanks for featuring me on your front page! Overall, I really like the pro subscription, the analytics are awesome (blows away other sites "data" we get). I do have one big suggestion:

Make sure people know your license is unlimited reproductions. This is why I sell for about $30-50 a pop on your site - its essentially an EL license. I think people are more willing to buy if they understand that they are getting full res work with very broad terms. It's hard for me to convey this threw your site. I'm getting interest in my work there, I just feel like people need to better understand the deal they are getting.

Excellent Suggestion. We'll put some thought/work into making that more explicit.
