If  it  can  get  out  of  the  gate  running  will  be  fairly  good  to  start.  Have  a  few  pics  there  and  hopefully  will  get  more.  Try  it  --  you  might  like  it.  If  not  no  harm  is  done.  Benji  seems  like  a  decent  persons.  Your  e-mails  are  answered  promptly.  So  like  i  said  -  give  it  a  try.

How many images do you have up there and how many have you sold?

have  about  a  dozen  pics  there  but  so  far  no  sales.  just  started  and  have  more  to  add.  but  time  has  been  short  for  me  this  week.  they'll  sale  -  i  just  have  to  give  them  time.

I wouldn't mind uploading some images, but no IPTC extraction is a show stopper for me.

Waiting to get  out  of  the  gate isn't a a horse I want to bet on at this time. Let me know where it is when it gets to the first turn.

sorry but if you aren't adding anything relevant I believe the first picfair topic is more than enough

I uploaded the first night after the announcement over 100 images and agree with Dan that Benji is nice and decent guy. I had a question, and he sent me a personal email and some tips next day. Next morning, there were just 1,500 images online, including mine (for a brief moment in the history, my percentage in that collection was about 8% of the total).

Here are the numbers:
I priced my images between 10 and 30 Euros. There were some nice images there in a similar price range, and others in the collection were quite poor and priced at 1 Euro.
I started with about 120 views, (some bot goes through every image and sends out a tweet for each), and then every day the total view count increased by only about 10. My sales figure after a week stands at 0.

It doesn't look that after the initial surge the website is getting much traffic or maybe the buyers are looking only at the 1 Euro images.

You offer a lot of advice, Luis.  Can you tell us what was relevant about your post?

sorry master! actually I was the one showing picfair to MSG community so I believe saying that we should give them a try isn't enough to open a topic, I have opened one but it had information not just parody like Dan did, take a chill pill

Sorry Dan/Warren, but with Luis on this one. There is an existing thread announcing the site. New treads should at least bring new insights or has to go under the original. Keeping what belongs together in one tread makes reading posts so much easier and relevant.

YAY! light at the end of the tunnel, thanks Charl, my exact feelings!

Cut him some slack.  Dan likes to post.
So does Luis.

I am just along for the ride...

Oh well, don't we all Warren (else we would have been the silent reader types)?

Yes, right Tom 

     I  take  it  that  Louis  doesn't  like  for  anyone  to  step  on  his  toes.  If  you  put  any  pics  on  there  fine  --  if  not  less  competition!

yes Dan, I am very concerned about competition on a marketplace that opened 15 days ago

Was that sarcasm?

Quote from: Dan on August 03, 2013, 19:02

Noooooo, not from Luis. 

I tried to open PicFair page but it says: attention required and wants me to complete the security check... Whatta ... anybody else?
