An almost steady decline since Oct 2013 (which was a BME)

I think a collection of exclusive images would be interesting. So that they can really target the mid stock section of stock. It is easier to justify higher prices if the content is exclusive.

I don't think Shutter needs exclusivity to justify their prices - judging from my SOD royalties, which are higher on average than those from any other agency, including Alamy. Nevertheless, I'd probably go for image exclusivity with my bestsellers, It's never gonna hapen, though.

I only upload to Veer these days if I really have absolutely nothing better to do....

So do I; the review time sometimes is very long, but my rejection rate is below 10%.
With almost 3K images there I get about 50-100 sales/month (resulting in 8-10 payouts a year).
... so, if you have quite a bunch (1000+) to upload, it may be worth spending the time.

The equation for FT is fairly simple-


Image Type
Studio=90% + Acceptance

Travel= 30% or less

That's about it. Travel imagery is usually rejected for similarity (even if there aren't similar images). Too bad I like travelling more than working at the studio.

I made around €50-100 /month with 2,300 files, of which 5-10€ was for subscriptions. I won't miss that little cash, so I just opted out of subscription licenses as well as of extended, since they will sell "Social Media" licenses that include the right to share the images across fb, g+, twitter et al.
Bad moves from PM methinks.
I'll upload the dozen of vectors I have, though.
