well congrats.  They are pain but they can also be a good earner if you have the time / patience.

Well, I took the plunge and applied to istock....  not holding my breath.  I wasn't too fond of uploading my driver's license... but...
     I uploaded 3 of my highest selling pix from SS, StockXpert & DT.
      What's the 'ballpark'  wait on a application now-a-days?  The application said 2 weeks.  That about right? Anyone know?    -tom

My applications took on average 2 days. But the longest wait was over a week, shortest just a couple hours. It's weird.

Thanks,  Kngkyle..
LOL,  yeah,  I think my fastest was USPS... the application was something like, answer these questons....  "Can you see through a viewfinder?   and   Can you push a button with your right index finger? "    I think I was approved the instant I hit the enter button.   
      I think my SS app took the longest and of course I had to do it 2 or 3 times...   I was curious about  IS and what they were currently taking.  I seem to recall that a few of the folks here just recently got accepted there.       -tom

Big difference of course is that at IS it has taken me five weeks to get 70 pictures on line.  The same 70 at SS has taken just four or five days.......
