Title: Free Image of the Week
Post by: yingyang0 on November 05, 2006, 02:34

One of my photos is this week's free image of the week at iStock. I just hope it gets used enough so I can find it in print somewhere.

Congratulations.
I have often wondered if having a free image effects sales of your images overall. Please let us know if you see a significant increase.

I had a fiotw a couple of months ago and as a result my sales went up and 4 designers asked to join my CN so it definatly helps sales.  I have found the image in use only once since and that was because it was used in the 'designer spotlight'.  I think that most people that download the photos probably don't use it very quickly if at all.

Congrats Yingyang, yes I experienced the same thing as fotografer. Hopefully you, yingyang will profit from it too.

That is the great secret ;)

You have to send your proposal to transferred, she chooses them. But I think she changed her name. I believe you have to send it now to GoGo.
