I recently got a $50 'Single and Other' sale. I've never had one for anything close to that before. Why would someone end up paying such a big amount that I would get that much? I'm not complaining! I'm just curious.

$50 is not much at all.
More is possible.
On some other sites, even much more.
But the general trend is going down.

Happened to me too, later i discovered it was displayed for few seconds on a popular tv show.

lucky guy, I got 62 cents for Single and Other... twice already this month!

It happens. Had one a little over 200 for a ingle once. Have no idea why but hey its money

How's that possible when SS states that maximum you can get is 120?

Large enterprises pay hundreds of dollars to license images. They get additional indemnity and help with image searches.

how possible that I only get 62 Cents per image

I've gotten all sorts of random amounts, typically much, much lower. I had one for just a quarter last month.

I assumed the kind of major uses suggested by the price would need an extended license? No?
