I have a few hundred images on Crestock at the mo, and though it's only about 30% of everything I submitted, for the most part the do seem to have selected the best quality 30%.
On the downside, the sales are dismal, I get a subscription sale or two a week (oooh 50c, almost enough for a packet of crisps), it's my last set to get uploaded, and usually only when I have a few hundred to fire and forget.
I've not used their forums though so can't comment.

Aye it's kind of a tricky one to get accurate suggestions for some phrases as it's weighted to get previous searches with a significantly higher result than the entered phrase, it's hard to predict mathematically whether "world wonder" is related to "wonderful" or "man wondering" for example, it should improve over time as more people make searches and we have more entries to test against

I don't know if I should post my link here, but this is exactly why I built my site

http://www.picniche.com (see Lee's site for his view)

I use it to generate new ideas all the time

Idea: kid pretending to be surprised after secretly finding and opening all their christmas presents

Hey All

I've been cruising google for links to my site and it brought me here

Good to see some people have found it useful, and of course that some have improvements they'd like to see.

Just thought I'd mention as regards suggestions for improving entered terms, I added a suggestions feature last week which finds similar but better ranked terms to the phrase you entered it's pretty simplistic but it works to some extent, and will get better as more people search.
I've also added a rolling 'latest niches' and top lists. Still got some things to iron out, but it's getting there.

I'm delighted to hear any feedback from you guys and i'll do what I can to add features as and when I get a chance.

Cheers
Bob

PS: Yes, strangely enough, "fungus smell" is more likely to make a sale (disregarding factors such as default sort orders, colour or other advanced search features), statistically speaking, effectively it means that more people are buying the existing images (per image) tagged with that phrase at a higher rate than "business woman", although this sounds strange, it's mostly a reflection of the almost complete lack of competition for that phrase. Odd I know, but hey, stats are strange things sometimes
