Off Topic / Re: What language is this?
« on: June 02, 2008, 00:06 »
It is Hebrew.

Actually it's one of the biggest sites in Israel.
I have found my images there more than once.

28
I'm on my way of doing the same, stopped uploading to DT about 3 weeks ago.
The main problem for me is Albumo that ignores my resuests to remove my portfolio there, and I have been deleting 1 file a day as they allow, but I still have a little over 200 files there.

General Stock Discussion / Panoramas
« on: May 24, 2008, 08:56 »
I recently started playing around with some panorama shots.
I was wondering how will it go on stock sites...

Does anyone upload panoramas to stock?
What sites accept them?
Do they sell?

oh and there is this cool website called google that has what is called a search engine, this helps you find things on the internet

Google could really be of help if I would remember that his last name is acurus :)

anyway, thanks for the link!

He details his workflow on his website, I adopted some of the simpler things and reduced by rejection rate considerably ..

link? please?

General Stock Discussion / Re: TinEye anyone ?

I tried searching using the FF plugin, used my portfolio on IS for it.
and I'm impressed!
with a rather small part of the portfolio I looked at I already found 5 images in use that I didn't know of before.

I like it!

General Stock Discussion / Waiting times
« on: May 15, 2008, 10:22 »
After the "big raise" at SS I'm beginning to consider IS exclusivity more and more.

I do know that I can't do it right away since some sites make you have the files online for a certain amount of time.
I know that DT wants 6 months and BigStock 90 days.
what else?
are there any more surprises that I am not aware of?

34
they made my choices a lot easier.

I will keep my portfolio there for now, but as soon I am free from keeping my work at other places (that might take a few months though...) I'm going exclusive on IS.

Am about 1 DL away from my first DL. woho.... ;)

36
I have had shots like that rejected due to lack of DOF. and ons site uses "focus or focus point is not where we would expect.".


I have had some of those rejections as well, but last week they accepted this image, with very very shallow DOF.  go figure...

Cameras / Lenses / Re: Canon 100mm F2.8 macro
« on: May 02, 2008, 14:47 »
I've had this lens with a 20D for a while, and it's a good, sharp lens. Did you look at the chat on the Fred Miranda Forums to get a lot of comments - largely very positive - about the lens?


I did look at the forums at Fred Miranda, but wanted to hear first hand opinions from other stockers :)

I just ordered it from adorama.
Isn't it fun buying equipment without a credit card, and just using your stock money from paypal?  ;)

Cameras / Lenses / Canon 100mm F2.8 macro
« on: May 02, 2008, 13:12 »
I'm seriously thinking of ordering this lens on monday.

Anyone here has any experience with it?
pros and cons?

I will use it mainly for macro.

Crestock.com / Re: oh, the humiliation...
« on: April 29, 2008, 11:21 »
Josh,

I really do appreciate you taking the time to read the posts here and to reply, but...

At first I found all this rather amusing, but after reading what you had to say here, I was thinking again about it all and came to a conclusion that I would not want to take part in a site that treats it's contributors the way you do.

I find your site to be very arrogant, with nothing real to back it up with.

I will contact your support and ask to remove all of my images from your site.

Crestock.com / oh, the humiliation...
« on: April 28, 2008, 03:42 »
I browsed a little at crestock earlier today (which I don't do much, I don't upload much there either, since they are good on rejections and poor with sales...) to find out one of my shots in the "worst image of the day" archive...
this is the one: http://www.crestock.com/todays-worst-image.aspx?id=572.

I don't mind getting a beat when I deserve one, but to claim that this photo is blurry makes me think that the honorable judge needs a new pair of glasses...  ;)

the picture is pin sharp, and actually sold a few times on other sites (including SS and IS which I believe won't accept blurry shots...).

all in all, it made my day. good to start a day laughing  :P

I have 20 downloads there in the year or so that I am with them, it was enough for one pay check of $51.30.

at the beginning I had all my images there set at $5.00.
I recently changed all images to $7.00 to see how it works, and each sale of a file increases it's price by one dollar, so now I have files at 7,8 and 9 dollars.

I went to check and it was up, and I even had a download.
A whole $0.30!
Where do I order the 1Ds MK III? ;)

Crestock.com / Re: Crestock acceptance

I am in Crestock for a few months now, after they contacted me through my website asking me to join.
I didn't upload much since there were zero sales there ( didn't upload at all for the past 3 or 4 months).
After getting 3 downloads in the last week or so, I decided to give them another chance and uploaded 55 images today. all of them are steady sellers at other sites.
out of those 55 images, 52 were rejected. mostly with the "technical issues" statement.
I sent them an email asking them to remove all my images and close my account.
I don't have the time for jokes.
