Off Topic / Great photographers on the internet

« on: October 07, 2006, 04:14 »

Take a look at this. You won't regret!

iStockPhoto.com / Have you slowed down uploading at iStock because of the new system?

« on: October 02, 2006, 21:42 »

I've noticed that it's become a LOT more of a bothersome thing to upload pics now than it used to be.
So, just to see some stats here, let's have a poll.

Site Related / Inbox wiping danger

« on: September 12, 2006, 06:29 »

I think the order her should be changed:

Delete all messages in your Inbox
Outbox
New Message
Check for new messages

I almost deleted all my messages (well only one actually) because I instinctly aimed for the top link. If there were no confirmation, the inbox would have been clean by now.

iStockPhoto.com / Creative Network

Anyone ever had any use for the Creative Network? Does it affect anything at all (unless they're friends from before)?

StockXpert.com / New sizes: 16MB limit

« on: September 06, 2006, 21:58 »

There used to be a limit of 8MB, but they finally raised it to 16MB now with the new servers.

Shutterstock.com / Slow

Is it just me or is SS slow on sales these days? Earlier, when I uploaded a batch, there would be 10-15 downloads four days in a row afterwards, but now I'm lucky with four downloads a day. iStock on the other hand is very stable.

(I'm not one who has been haunted by rejections or anything)

ScandinavianStockPhoto.com / Scanstock in the news

« on: July 20, 2006, 08:28 »

I might mention that Scanstock was in the news here in Norway recently. Typical old school photographers starting to nag about microstock, but Scanstock got interviewd on National radio (P2) and in the third biggest paper here (who also happens to buy photos from scanstock):

An extremely long discussion unfolded at the Norwegian photo site foto.no because of it. (Strange how a group of people insists that cheap photo euqipment, computers, software and ease of processing should not somehow result in lower prices.)

iStockPhoto.com / Remove other people's poor keywords at iStock

« on: July 01, 2006, 11:14 »

This is good news.
Now you can check off on people's keyword list, and remove the inappropriate ones (and also suggest new ones).
