iStockphoto, the world’s busiest image market announced today that it recently surpassed two million members. The two-millionth member was Brandon Elrod, from Foothill Ranch, California. Brandon, a certified arborist whose initial iStock purchase was of trees (naturally), will receive a prize package that includes 2,000 site credits. Other new members joining around the two millionth mark hailed from Australia, Canada, China, the Philippines, and Trinidad and Tobago.

Does anyone know how many contributing members iStock has?

so how many are active?  Out of the 2m and the 38K?

Istock has been around a while so no doubt there has been a lot of churn - even if it is just people move jobs and starting a new account.
