Here is a new one.
At least for me.
25% comission and no FTP
If they start like this I can see a great history of success, or NOT.

Doesn't look too promising. I think I'll let this one pass.
-
they have increased the commission to 40%

The website us very functional, a bit like DT. I might give it a shot. Would be interesting to get some new reject reasons for a change :D

Any one in here have any experience with this one?
Any sells?

The great Yuri Arcurs is there with over 2800 uploads, not very many views, and just a handful of downloads. Don't even waste your time.

I don't have any experience with them, but they have at least one iStock exclusive photo on their front page - the one of Brianna shouting into a megaphone.
IMHO, it doesn't look good for a photo agency to use photos they don't (and couldn't) sell on their front page. The fact that they swiped lots of DTs design on the image pages also says negative things to me about their approach.

You also have to lock in your images for 12 months.

I've been uploading to Imagecatalog for a while now. The upload procedure is a bit quirky, the sales are more or less non-existent, but they accepted most of what I submitted, so I continued uploading.
This week however, I got a complete batch, except one image, rejected. The same photos seem to get through more or less everywhere else.
I can accept low sales or complicated uploads or many rejections, and even two of those at the same time, but all three and I'm out. I'll leave what I already have there for now, but I have stopped uploading as from today.
Just in case anybody wondered.
