I love reading all the comments and suggestions. This sure is a bright and talented group. Can I offer one alternative? In the interest of time and not having to reinvent the wheel by setting up a new site and the almighty search algorithm, payment issues and staff.

Why not try to unite as a group and select a representative to contact a site we all agree offers what is top on our collective list. First we create a list of what we want. Then try to negotiate or work with the site owner so it's a win win for all. They can then advertise the fact that the top players in Microstock are there and watch the people come. That's the movie in my head anyway.

Other randoms thoughts that make me worry that something needs to get done fast because how long do you think it will be before Flikr start's selling pic's for pennies? The time to act, educate newbies and organize is now. I will put my camera down before I sell a picture for pennies. So should everyone else.

Yes I am an Exclusive but maybe not for long.
