Photocase is becoming one of my favorite sites. I enjoy browsing the photos and find the site inspiring and well run. Now all I need to do is learn German (been using a translator to read comments and forum)

Hi guys, I'm here if you have any questions to ask. And please call me Peter (or you can stick with Dudebun if you prefer  :) ).

This is beginning to remind me of a "cult" following, Peter.  Photocase is definitely different.  My submissions are getting more and more "different."   8)

I just got my first extended license "Merchandising License", 60.36 euros (That's about $80)

I just love the site (even if they reject 90% of my images!) It's very different from the other sites. And the earnings are good.

My only wish would to include a multi-image upload. I can see why they don't have a bulk upload system to keep people from dumping their whole portfolios, but they could have a web form that accepts - let's say - five or ten images at one time.

Nah, I'll keep my identity a secret here...
But I can tell you it's a pretty picture of a flower, nothing special, but it looks good and feels like summer... :)

Congrats on the sale.  You made me go look.  Nada!  I'm stuck at 4.80euro.

Haven't had an image accepted since before Christmas.  I'm in a state of serious rejection dejection.  :'(

I just glanced at this site, and it looks like an art school project. But apparently some people are buying some of these images?  I definitely don't get it, which means I should probably jump right in and start seeing my best images rejected like everyone else, and learn something from the experience.  Like, mainly, that I'm too old for this scene.   :)

In a way it reminded me of 1x.com, there's a similar desperately-artsy quality to many of the images, a feeling that they're in magazines I'm not nearly cool enough to appreciate.

This sounds like a fun game.

actually, i found one of my images used on a highly commercial, not so cool, sunglass online sales site. it was one of those free credit downloads by one of the members. the cool thing about photocase is that you know exactly who downloaded your photo.

Cool, yes but I think "free credit download" translates as "you get nothing", right?

So it's a community of designers who also do photos, and trade them with each other at no cost to use in assignments.  Something like that? 

I'm not really making fun of it - I'm sure to the right people it's a valuable concept...

perry, we've got plans for a multi-image upload, but don't count on it for a little while yet, we've got some other updates already in motion

ap, glad you're enjoying it too,

stockastic, yes, lots of people buy our photos every day; yes, we do have a sharing aspect; yes, it is valuable; no, I'm not trying to convince you to join either.

if any of you have anything you want to ask or suggest or or or or, you can PM me here at microstockgroup or at PC (http://www.photocase.com/en/user.asp?u=66906 [nofollow])  but no questions about photo selection please ;)

   Anybody having sales here? I have 12 :) pictures accepted, but 0.00e...
   A little dissapointed. Some months with them. Someone was saying that the ports are small here but you get 1dollar a month for a photo that was accepted...
