One file getting a download doesn't excite me (anymore). Closest to excitement is when a file gets like 10 downloads on SS on the first day online or when a whole icon series get's downloaded on IS. EL also I guess.

I posted something in the spring. It was approved on a Monday on SS and the next morning it had its first sale - an EL. It sells now and then, but I sure had high hopes when the first sale was a big one, and within 24 hours.

I get excited then i made an RM-sale over thousand Euros which is unfortunately very rare :'(

Then you get an inane rejection notice...although istock accepts lense flare we found this did not add anything to this file.* it was a close up of a guy welding and the flare was the arc of the electrode!
