The company I work for (AWAI) does photography workshops and creates products to help people learn to take and sell better photos as stock (as well as fine art and editorial).

That's great. Check my portfolio, sales, and especially some editorial at DT.

We occasionally send small groups of people to far corners of the globe along with a professional photo instructor to show them how to take photos they can sell.

I'm living part time in a far corner of the world, tropical, lush and exotic. On my island, I shot all the waterfalls there are to see and those landmark landscapes can be found in major publications. Moreover, we have colorful ethnic muslims in the mountains, sunsets a galore and curved palm trees over white sand. I have good news for you. You can leave the professional instructor at home and I will be the guide and the instructor. We have urban and studio light boxes available too. So you can save on your staff.

Right now we're looking for video tips for our e-letter and products.
If you have a tip to share with our hobbyist/beginner photographer readers -- on anything from taking great landscapes to getting natural shots of models to depth of focus to developing stock concepts... pitch the idea to us.

I don't pitch but I do sell. What are your rates?

Why o why have things to be so predictable?

You are all putting too much effort into this. Just sue the b@tch and Flickr, since they can know this isn't genuine stuff with all his Ferraris. You are all far too friendly. In a while, he will take it down, and then start all over again, under another nick. Flickr will just smile. They won't smile if a microstockers guild comes up with several infringements in a row, asking damages.

My last infringement was on the website of a (ultra left) political party during Belgium's last general elections. I just wrote the guy that I requested 10,000 euro in damages. He quickly took the image down, adding a note why I reacted that "sour". Of course I was in no position to sue him, but I sure raised hell with his competitors.
Proof was gone though.

and not forgetting Picturenation here in the UK (once they are back online)

They won't. And if ever, current street scenes will look like archeology. 

Images which are sold elsewhere as RF/RM commercial
Looks like they want exclusivity on editorial.

No, they mention commercial, not editorial.

I don't think I will upload my editorial to them. First of all it all needs rekeywording and their sales don't justify that. I had too many rejects lately of 5DII images that were even accepted at iStock. Support told me they got more stringent on their image requirements. That's fine: another Crestock then = low sales, too selective. I can't bother to rekeyword and then have 50% rejected.

I would like to volunteer for them in a logistical/admin position. They pay for all your living expenses and return flight.

Yes that's why their overhead, like in all the ngo "charity" industry runs so high. They attract a number of freebee adventurers.
I had one experience with MSF once years ago in a high poverty area (Mindanao). The guy (a country fellowman) drove around in a luxurious 4WD with a private driver and his girlfriend to make inventories of equipment in local hospitals. (Of course the driver needed a separate hotel room). I told the guy I could gladly do that inventory for MSF at 0.1% of the cost on my motorbike, but he really pissed me off when he called my (then) partner a "native". We were off speaking terms when I called his Antwerp girlfriend a "native" too. 

BBC News

The German government has warned web users to find an alternative browser to Internet Explorer to protect security.

The warning from the Federal Office for Information Security comes after Microsoft admitted IE was the weak link in recent attacks on Google's systems.

Microsoft say the security hole can be shut by setting the browser's security zone to "high", although this limits functionality and blocks many websites.

However, German authorities say that even this would not make IE fully safe.

Speaking to BBC News, Graham Cluley of anti-virus firm Sophos said the warning applied to versions 6, 7 and 8 of the browser.

"This is a vulnerability that was announced in the last couple of days. Microsoft have no patch yet and the implication is that this is the same one that exploited on the attacks on Google earlier this week," he said.

Does is copy keywords from an existing file of our choice?  I love that in Exifer.

Exifer once ruined a series of my photos writing the metadata back. Since then, I stay far away from any undocumented amateur programs that want to meddle directly with my photos. I just wrote my own script to quickly tag and reorder/spellcheck my tags. For actually writing the metatags into the images, I only trust Irfanview. Of course, the vested commercial programs from Adobe should be bug-free too.

I was accepted a couple of weeks ago but I'm not sure yet when to upload. If their upload system is faster than iStock, then it's fast enough. I don't have any problems with the iStock system upload using Deepmeta.

I think it was Achilles some time ago that said that categories do attract some buyers. He claimed to have data to sustain that position. The majority of my sales on DT is by the keyword n/a. That means the buyer found the image by visual search in similars, or by browsing categories.

In principle, CV is the way to go for any agency. It doesn't take that much time on IS if you use DeepMeta. Occasionally I have a tag that isn't in the CV, like "emo", a particular taste of "goth" or "gothic" (fashion-lifestyle). I just leave it there, and it's accepted.

Why use the proprietary PSD format? TIF is open format, lossless too, and has about the same size. I have to admit I use zipped TIF (which is more compact). For photos, why should you save layers?  The flat TIF is enough, unless you do illustrations.

I save: the original CR2, the untweaked JPG from cam, and the final TIF with all the edits. From there I can generate the JPGs for upload. I save on external disks, at least 2 copies. On average, I obtain 30 Gig per month like that, that's one extra 1TB disk per year. Considering the price of disks, that's peanuts. 

I can't be regularly on the MSG because of the DNS? issue, but 123RF works fine here. I could log in and had to cry about my earnings for January. 

My favorite's the Nikon 24-70mm F/2.8 for anything involving people.

I'm using the equivalent Canon on the 5DII but I found it a bit short for portrait (Full Frame).
