Title: 8 days without sales
Post by: vphoto on December 27, 2007, 22:01

It is 8 days without dls for me in IS. Btw, DT has made me twice amount of money than IS. Is it
because I am making mostly food and background images and IS has lots of exclusives photographers doing exactly that and often with better equipment?  With my Canon 40D I can't make XL, or XXL backgrounds for IS. On other sites they accept maximum 40D image as XL.

Long term, I wouldn't worry about IS. They are up and down for me as well, but all in all, they sell well.

iStock seems to be consistent for me, the weekends can be very slow but I always reach my minimum payout at least once a month  :)

Istock is my best seller and December has been solid, especially when you factor in the holiday. Dreamstime is a tough site for me. High rejection rate limited sales.

if I would get 40% instead of 20% from each IS sale they would be my best site .... just a thought ...

currently they are 2nd with about 25% less $ than SS
