Title: 1000 downloads from iStock
Post by: PixelsAway on April 16, 2009, 10:31

1000 downloads from iStock after 16 months of submitting.  ~$1/download.
6 months to reach the first 250 downloads and 9.5 months to 500, so there is some speeding up.
BME in the last February and since then it's a little slower for me.

Nice work. I hope to hit 2,000 pretty soon, but might not be for awhile.

Congrats! It gives me some hope, I almost gave up on IS. It's my 12th month with microstock and I am still far behind you. I guess I need less nature and more studio shots ;-)

Congratulations!  ;D
Less than 60 downloads away to reach 1000 for me. Been uploading there a little over a year and started getting downloads last April. IS has been very good to me. :-*

Congrats!

I'm also close, 13 months since I got my first file accepted. Due to the pricing of vectors my RPD is quite a lot higher than yours though.
