Yes but I haven't uploaded many pictures yet. I might consider going up to 8-10MP. It's just much easier to have one size for all. Most of sales comes from SS, DT, StockXpert and 123. Also I can upload to all my sites quite fast.

Before I got 5Dmk2 I was sending 6MP everywhere. I think it's good enough size for most of them. Since IS is such a painful for uploading I might consider giving them separate batches anyway.

But (don't get upset) I peaked at your Bixby Bridge keywords. Gotta say, there are an awful lot of them that are totally wrong (sunset, tourist, lighthouse, mcway, coast, coastline, fog, steinbeck, waterfall, waves, sea, beach). I don't have the heart to look at the others. 
That could be true, it's has been long time since I uploaded this image. Now I usually use Yuri's keywording tool to find words that describe similar images. I was to lazy to revisit and edit older images :-)

I started actively upload year ago so I hope it will build up over time :-) 4 of 5 bestsellers are nature shots.

Watching my growth on IS I predict I could join you in around 50 years or might be dead first :-) Good luck!

All and all sales are most important criteria...

Sometimes I wonder if I should try macros instead?

Fotolia seems to accept many images of computer hardware that all north-american agencies rejected. I managed to sell couple pictures with computer memory there.

The sole purpose of such movies, sponsored by stock agency of course, is to make all Yuri-wannabies drool and start feeling sudden urge to shoot and upload more :-) Most degenerated individuals may experience urge for keywording. Please do not exceed recommended doses of watching this material.

How about some statistics? I only know how little downloads I have. How about how little views? At least this would give me info about direction my portfolio is going. Maybe stats per period of time also :-)

Yes, I got extremely lucky that I figured out not to bother with them anymore :-)

They should put face detection technology on their website so search can easily find pictures with nobody :-)

I should accept that it will not be a good month, move on and start enjoying some shooting. Just got my first strobist kit so I have to learn how to control my flash off camera :-)

My sales are diving this month across the board.

If your Digital Web Logistics is just a framework anybody can plug in new website that's what I was asking for. There is noting like that on the market. If anybody allows you to use their system usually they want you to upload to their site first. One thing I wish to avoid is uploading same stuff to many places. I just want to be able to share and sell pictures stored in one place across internet.

If you can put it in your check-in luggage it will be x-rayed. For me they opened suite case and checked. I haven't tried to check it in without bag like stroller. It might work too. Call airlines and ask them what you should do.

It's kind of like Facebook like/unlike button.

This does not make any sense. I was thinking that photo popularity takes predecease over keywords or maybe keywords got weights which so if "day" is very popular word it can bring photos with this word to first page.
Does anybody know if search engine supports logical AND? When I put "memorial+day" it gives completely different results. Actually less than one full page so I guess "+" is not operator or whitespace char.

How does it differ from putting link to my photo from other agencies? I was thinking about something which allow me to use micro payment system like PayPal, Google Checkout or Amazon FPS on my own website.

Now I see why my ftp upload from last night went to void :-)

I would say it was related to number of downloads. I was going up for more than month:

I was looking around to learn if any of existing free CMS (e.g Drupal) got add-ons for gallery with shopping cart that could be easily add to my site. Ideally images should be hosted on some storage site like Amazon S3 and cart should handle Paypal or Amazon FPS. Gallery 2 got integration with some photo printing services, maybe it could be adapted to sell images instead?

Now when I am ignored by couple users I can see if anybody actually likes me :-)
