Greetings all! Its a new year and I have new ambitions...or rather - old ambitions, with fresh motivation!
I opened my first stock account with DT 3 years ago. Followed by Fotolia and BigStock. I lost motivation early on due to my limited understanding of how microstock works and the selective process of iStock and Shutterstock. I am still knocking on their door, but I won't give up!
I have recently added 4 more stock ports, with 123rf being my largest.

Thank you Poncke, I may definitely look into that. :)

be prepared to be put through the griller at those critique forums, the standards are very, very high at those sites, but if you got the gumption to learn, you will be a better photographer for it.
