Photo art conversions - allowed on any microstock sites?

<< < (2/6) > >>

jeffclow:
I appreciate the responses.......so far those who have seen these conversions fall into two camps:

1) I love it - can you do a photo of me...of my baby...of my dog....in that style?

2) I don't like it at all.

The reason that I'm asking is that the people who like it seem to REALLY like the pseudo artwork, and thus I thought there might be a market for them.

Thanks for the suggestions about Veer - any other sites for "artwork" that you'd recommend instead of microstock sites?

Rule no1: If itīs easy to make,  itīs not going to be worth anything.    I guess itīs possible to record a Ps action, and make it with pushing one button.

You have beautiful originals there. But Ps filtering have such a bad reputation in this business..

Ps.  Donīt trust family and friends.  They always like your work ;)

Lcjtripod:
I have tried it before and gave up.

Chances are you will get an "over filtered, send the original image" rejection.

Actually, if the designer is worth being called a Designer he/she can do it with no problem. ..... and many do.

That may very well be, but I'm guessing you're getting these comments on Flickr, which is not a commercial image agency, and the people making the requests are not commercial buyers. Although these might have artistic appeal, I don't think there's a lot of commercial value present.
Still, you'll never know for sure until you try. It won't take much time/effort to upload a few ... go for it!

I've tried a few and seems that rejection is the end result.
