I don't think he could sell since he is the only one who knows how the back end works. 

Hopefully he keeps good notes and has a big handbook on hand.

Can someone explain to me (who is familiar with FAA), does it possible to set prices for both licenses, RF and RM for particular image?
It's seems so...  ???

Sure it's possible.  And preferable, likely.  Ignore the designations of "RF" and "RM" there for a second, because they don't mean what you think they mean...

"Unlimited, perpetual commercial license" - $500 - example
"Advertising, print - 2 years" - $100
"Advertising, digital - 2 years" - $50
etc.

Call the first one RF, the rest RM.  See?  "RM" there is just a subset of "RF".  Price accordingly.

Thanks Sean!

Hints of "big things" coming in the next few weeks.  Maybe they finally have a European supplier or maybe its just expanding to shower curtains.

Oh that's great, I think some of my scenic shots would be good on shower curtains...  ::)

After a brief seven years or so dabbling in Microstock, I've found that the translation of "Big News" (or we're excited to announce) usually means, we've found a new way to make more money and pay you less.

In other words Big News does not equal Good News.

Before you name and shame people in here realize that the easiest way to add pricing to a large amount of images is to opt in the whole portfolio and then remove the ones that don't fit. I am sure a lot of people did this just like they did it when the iphone cases were introduced. They might not have even realized that it was open for business as some were beta testing. That would account for most of the trademark stuff you see.

Well that only shows the system is very prone to abuse, even by mistake, and believe me, telling the judge it was a mistake wont fly. Once the file is purchased, you become liable. Intentional or not.

My sales on FAA were great in Nov, Dec and even Jan.  Started slowing down in Feb and tanked in March.  During this time the relationship with Amazon ended.

Sean Dunn or whatever his real name seems to believe the strengths of FAA is in database programing.  He needs to leave the echo chamber and get some fresh ideas.



Are you sure it's over?

Here is my photo on Amazon, again "alive and kicking"...

Amazon/FAA relationship --  On the forums we have been told that the deal is over. Yes, Amazon still have FAA product in their database.  It just lingers there for some unexplained reason.

I had a couple of great sales this week. Maybe they are done monkeying around with the site and its getting back on track.  Who knows.

Official word on the Amazon thing:

"We have a limit on Amazon now and you cannot ask to have work there any longer., This is no longer part of a premium package and there are no ways or means to fast forward work there

That is the answer.

If you want to make sure your work is on Amazon I am afraid you are going to have to put it there yourself.

Sorry "

I have several photos on Amazon from FAA... Some time those images were there without pricing, so it was impossible to buy them, but now prices are again there and they are available for sale...

I never sold anything on FAA...  :P
