I always thought this was a big untaped market for microstock.

Will be interesting to see if it goes to full roll out or if they keep it limited to the 5000 (I assume exclusive) photos.

oh wowo,,.yah this is a world untapped market. Hope that this will soon led to the non-exclusives too ;D...But its hard to say given the fact that istock likes to promote the interests of the exclusives. ???

yeah sounds like a good thing.  I wonder how much the commission will be?  It also states that if the program is successful ALL images in the database will be marketed to cell phones not just the 50,000 (assumed exclusive) images.

I assume they will be $1 so the commission will be 20c.  THe price can be too low or the processing fees will kill them despite the fact the pictures will be tiny.
