Ok, I finally got a chance to poke at it. As a buyer, I'm not sure what it does. I searched from the front page on a couple terms. One didn't return anything, but asked me something about requesting it directly from photographers. I can already do that on imageBrief and snapWire if I want to do spec work. When I found a search that returned something, it took me a bit to figure out what to do. First I have to click on an image. Then I have to click on the icon in the lower left. Then the image page that comes up gives me no option to license. So, I'm done wasting my time and I leave.
Ok, I'm still interested, so I click on the guy's name from the image. I get an empty portfolio page with nothing but his image. No idea what to do now so I leave.

I'd say the quality and sharpness looks very good. Maybe they don't like the subject and are just using sharpness as an easy out.
Looks ok to me too, although I do see some oversharpening halo around the upper parts.

"Let's say that I and my fellow photographer produced 100 pictures and agreed a 60%/40% share of revenues"
How about you submit and keep the money from the images you shoot and he does the same?

"Third, photographers will take home 80%-90% from their sales because our business model is different from current agency business models."
That makes you a middleman.

"($60 per month, minimum 3-month commitment) or annually ($499 a year save 30%)."
Yeah, no thanks. I'd rather they make money when my content sells. Gives them an incentive to do work instead of just harvesting my cash.

That doesn't mean that sale got more than $.25 or whatever. We all know volume of small sales is what makes the till go up.

I don't think so. Sounds complex. Who's royalty rate is the payment based on? Which tax situation? Why would you split the payment for an image you took? Wouldn't your partner have his own images that he gets paid on? Why partner up if the concept is so extraordinary - shoot it yourself and keep the profits.

"Gibbs was thrilled to see himself featured in an advertisement for PayPal at the top of eBay, despite a twinge of regret that he would not even see a portion of the fee the photo agency would have been paid for the use of the image. "
Lol, here's your nickel.
If you shoot an image of a man looking upset on the edge of a bed with a frustrated woman behind, you should expect it to be used for articles about situations that that image could represent.

"And every time you upload a photo/video/whatever of nature, just check the photographs and "apply the nature template". And all your photos will have the same info, let's say, generic keywords like green, fresh, foliage, ecology etc."
My series don't really tend to have similar themes, and they're all keyworded anyways...

No idea what "templates" are for there, or why I should worry about them. Editing uploads requires a pop-up window every time that I have to minimize. It's just an awkward process.

Exif data would be useless, as most of these uses involve compositing several things together into a fresh file. Not just posting the original image online.

All sites generally have terms that prohibit this kind of thing:
"You may not ... use any data mining, robots or similar data gathering and extraction tools on or at the Website or use any other automated means to access the Website;"

HOW in the heck do you know what model release this photog used? Post a copy if you have his release, and we can go from there. fyi"when i say model release om referring to a generic copy.
Because it was posted earlier in this thread, nitwit. Research it yourself.

"Once Getty selects them, you're stuck with those images on Getty, as far as i know."
Yep. It's really not fair that you can't disable images from there. Very draconian.

I couldn't help it. I'm was dying without the thumbs. I'll twiddle some more with it tomorrow.

Being "vacuumed" is "defamatory"? And the girl has already put herself out there - there's not much to do make it worse.

Nice way to open yourself to lawsuits... many of these can be considered "defamatory" by models. And as we've seen before, the photographer would be the one to get sued, too. Yeah, it's funny as long as it's not your images and he is not putting *you* at risk of being sued.
There's nothing defamatory about these images, and the photographer is obviously not the one manipulating them. Nobody is going to get sued.

Contributors aren't into weird equations to figure out what they receive any more, so you're not going to gain anyone with that.
Also, I'd suggest redoing your logo. It's very pixelated and old school.

my question is simple, where do you get inspiration for sock photos with models ?

And yet, after years and years, you're unable to stop the system from changing all my titles and keywords to lower case.

So I can get more money than anyother stock images agency. That's not going to happen.
