Anyone notice this over on the Envato Forums...?

"for example when we launched PhotoDune we contacted a number of very high profile stock photographers and negotiated individual rates for each to ensure that we entered that marketplace with a competitive starting library."

Not surprised by any means, nor annoyed by it, but I just wonder who made the cut? (other than Yuri, Pressmaster, andresr and MonkeyBusiness - which I assume are just givens)
