Are you planning to automate the submission process (categories, pricing selection, and all the agencies specific metadata)? That's the main reason I'm sticking to Stocksubmitter, but your user interface is definitely cleaner and better

So you have 2 accounts selling the same "best" images?!

Stocksubmitter for example deletes plurals if you click on Remove Duplicates in the advanced editor

Do you add singular and plural version of keywords (if they are relevant)?
Only Shutterstock is deleting the plurals automatically. Does it mean that all the others accept (and need) both of them?

To me the surprising thing is Mirrorless cameras are failing to make more impact on SLRs.
I find them to be too slow compared to my canan mark IV.
I find them to be cheaper compared to your canon mark IV. And the quality is still great

No, you don't need to be approved.
But I have deleted my account. As other people mentioned, and I haven't noticed before, a super hi-res version of your image is available in the zoom view without watermark.
I wouldn't had a problem if the zoomed image was smaller, but that's too big.
For now I just started testing various POD websites and I'll see how it goes

Am I the only one having problems uploading to Saatchi Art?
After going through all the steps to add the infos, it gets stuck at the last step making me waste quite some time...

Am I the only one who can't use the Contact Us form on the SS website?
The SUBMIT button is not working.

I just found out about this: https://lightroom-keyword-list-project.blogspot.com.com/ (it's quite old, I know) And I was wondering if anybody is using a controlled vocabulary of keywords in Lightroom. Seems a good way to give an order to the keywording process, but I see a lot of possible limitations and problems along the way... Any direct experience with controlled vocabularies?

Do you sell mobile pictures with one of these (or other) app?
Any success with it or it's just a waste of time?
Do these agencies accept photos taken with a real camera too? (apart from Dreamstime, 123RF and Depositphotos, of course)

From the votes it looks like the only one which are worth a try are Zazzle, Fineartamerica, and Redbubble.
I will test these in the next few months. And I will also try to automate everything I can to sell on Ebay, Amazon and Etsy (not sure about this last one as it has a fee to list products) with a 3rd party service to print and dropship the products.

Understood If you eventually find something, please add it here

[...] Etsy has a known name and a better looking site. A partnership between Etsy and a POD should be the new opportunity we're looking for. But without framing, and square format, I probably wouldn't sell enough to make the effort worthwhile.
Have a look here: https://www.theprintful.com/custom/wall-artPlenty of formats available for poster, canvas and framed posters. Frames are quite basic tho. It uses Shipstation which let you integrate with Etsy, Amazon, Ebay, and other stores

Artofnowhere is interesting. It has some interesting products  Thanks. Looks better than The Printful, but I need to find some review online

It looks like that not a lot of people are selling pod...

Thanks for your opinions

Ok, I want to start selling POD products and I'm researching all the possible options.
First of all: Which websites are working best for you?
Second: What do you think it's the best strategy? Selling on just one website? Selling on a small selection of websites? Selling on most of them?
Third: Do you upload the same exact photos as on stock websites? Or you do different post-processing? Or even major photoshopping?

Do you know any good marketplace where to sell Lightroom presets?

Hi Robin, thanks a lot for your answer! 3) Does not yet provide GPS support, but let me know how you would like to use it and we can look into adding it.
What I want to achieve is to be able to automatically give a location to all the images (through reverse geocoding) so the user can search all images in France, o all images of people in Paris, in all images of lighthouses in Normandy, etc 5) Internal search includes tag searching, but other than that uses the default wordpress search (however this can be altered with third party plugins)
So is it compatible for example with the plugin Relevanssi? 8 ) Supports images and vectors.
No viedo yet? Is it something planned in future development? 9) Currently no option to have multiple photographers to pay separately.
Again, is it something planned?

I'm planning to set up my website to sell images.
I've a good knowledge of WordPress and I'm a front-end designer, so I can create a WordPress theme from scratch for this, but I don't want to cope with all the technical stuff behind it (images protection, watermarks, internal search engine, etc).
So I was wondering, if you have any advice or direct experience about which one to use: Symbiostock, Sellmedia or Grfx? Or any other solution maybe without WordPress?
These are my requests:
- FTP support
- EXIF/IPTC data support
- be able to use GPS location embedded in the image (so it should read all the data, not only a specified set like title, caption, keyword)
- images must be protected from download by unauthorized users (url masking for th downloadable files)
- internal search engine better than the default WordPress
- be able to sell different sizes and with RF and/or RM different licenses (would be ideal to have a sort of "price calculator" like Alamy for RM images)
- support for property and model releases
- ability to sell images, video and vectors
- OPTIONAL: ability to manage sales from different photographers (not many, 4-5 max) so they get paid directly
