I am there, I have maybe 50 designs. Occasional sales, they pay us soon after without any minimum limit. Setting up the templates is a bit time-consuming and the file needs to be CMYK instead of RGB.

*****EDIT: Someone messaged me saying the removed the CMYK requirement, maybe its finally easier!


Its not exactly that easy.  You must still upload a CMYK sized template of your image and upload a full sized RGB image.  They choose the text layout and write a description.  I uploaded some during their BETA testing phase, I haven't heard that they eliminated the CMYK step yet.

I uploaded about 5 designs just to see how it was (time consuming).  I did see the announcement about being able to just upload the images, but I haven't checked it out yet.

I did get a sale today for $5 so I think I will upload some more images and see if the new system is less painful.

I haven't done anything on there in a really long time.  Sold 2 cards this week so maybe I should spend some time seeing how to system works now.  They pay out on the third Wednesday of every month.

Well I have submitted some templates.
Now wait and see…

I must say that their staff (Caroline) is very gentle and ready to help (fast).

I opened an account there, and then discovered that they don't accept photos of people, even with a model release.  Since that's the vast majority of what I do, I'm not active there.  If they ever decide to change that, I'll give it a try.
