Hehe, congrats!
I also had the same view about my own flame. I mean, I have a lot of more itneresting pics, but boring = good apparently! ;)

My first flame was a photo that I nearly didn't upload because of bad lighting but decided to put it up and see if it was accepted and then delete after I had reshot it. It flamed in less than 3 months. :)

Congratulations Tyler!  :)
Did they let you know about it, or did you just happen to see it?

100 sales or more... 

I've got two, both of which are not very flash stock photos.. Go figure.

Congrats Leaf...

i think it has more to do with search rankings than anything.  I had a crappy picture of a skeleton key that raced up to 98 downloads, then all of a sudden stopped.  In the time it got lots of downloads it was #3 in the search for skeleton key.  Once it was moved to page, 3 or something, it stopped getting downloads alltogether.

Not sure how to get onto the first page of the search rankings though... if you knew, you could probably double your earnings.

For some reason I thought it was average of 10 DL per month. 

Once once a flame, always a flame then.

yep, once a flame always a flame.

1000 downloads gets you a blue flame.

Congratulations.

Hopefully I will get one within the next year or so.  I have a few photos that are around a 1/3 of the way there after 6 months.

heee

i have 1 red flame and 6 normal flames.

the one with the red flame puzzles me as well .. averages 48.5 DL a month.
But as usual, no complaints as long as it earns me $$$

i thought the red flame WAS the normal flame?  or do you mean one blue flame?

Wow! That's well over 1 download a day, every day. That's amazing. Congratulations.

Can you show us the image, or give a link to it? I'd love to see it.

My best-selling image is only on 14 downlaods per month.

This is the photo which sells like hotcake. But only on IS, not on the rest of the sites that i submit to.

Really have no idea why its such a good seller at IS

i suspect a mix between a well taken picture and good search ranking.

Nice shots here, congrats!!

I have two blue and 22 orange flames at the date. It's to little when I see some of top sellers are downloaded several thousands times! :))
