Tell him Yes.. if he hires the plane / Heli and pilot and lets you keep the copyright to all the shots take for whatever use you want. See what he thinks of that.

I am looking at getting the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ35 for a walk around Bridge Cam.

Still at the same level as when I started this thread...lol. No more sales since then either.

Ok. Thanks for the help. I just went with the "One Dollar" in that spot. 

I finally have a few images that will use the Alamy Model Release but I have one question.

The first paragraph ... who's name goes in that spot? Mine or the Models?

"For good and valuable Consideration of _____________ , herein acknowledged as received,"



I also have some shots from a few days before. Does it need another Model Release for the date or can I just add in Image numbers in the shoot description field?

It is true they will pay you if you want to pull out. I deleted my port and the wrote CS and told them to delete my account and pay me the monies owed to me. 3 days later account was closed with a email stating date for payout.  Thats one thing they did right.

Has anyone heard of this place? Looking around some photo forums sites and I happened to see this banner.

The main site entrance is http://totallycoolpix.com


The submitter application entrance is: http://totallycoolpix.com/are-you-a-photographer/

What they say:

We are always on the lookout for more totally cool pix. No matter what the subject, as long as there is a connection between or a story behind your images we are interested. It can be about architecture, inner city life, animal close ups, slow, images with a common theme (colour, event, national holiday, religion) and so on. The minimum number of images we are looking for in one set is 15. The ideal number would be 20 to 25 or higher.

In return for the (non-exclusive) use of your images we giv e you between $100-150, a link back to your website and the change to show off your work to thousands of people from around the world. And who knows, your images might get noticed by the likes of Reuters.   

Welcome to MSG Jim. What were the reasons for the rejection? LCV (Limited Commercial Value) ? "We have enough of these already" "Improper Focus"

You will find that the Micros are ..ummm.. pickier.. than Alamy. Alamy only checks for Technical Correctness of an Image.. Not for the content or composition.

If your rejections was for focus or noise.. we would need to see a full size image (hosted somewhere) or a 100% crop. Reading these forums and aking a few questions helped me get into Shutterstock and Istock on my second try for both.

I am hoping its worth it. I have been working an getting more images up there across 3 Pseudos. Over 100 images now with about 10 more in backup to load. Got to shoot new stuff since I am not loading over my Micro stuff there.

Got Naomi and Wynonna Judd coming into town tomorrow.. so gonna get them too..lol. Thing called the Santa Train. Tomorrow will be the first time the rode it together to pass out gifts from a train.  So editorial will be the word tomorrow.

Sunday will be a walk about day downtown and so forth.. so maybe more shots to upload after that.

My views are coming up significantly... so waiting on the sales to trickle along but still a long ways to go.

Tiffs with LZW Compression.

"I will also place any of my photos or designs on any product of your choosing."


Oh come on.. it clearly says its her designs 

Had a few pass last night. No problem with any part of Manager. These were RF shots anyways but I could change it if I wanted in Manager. Dont know what is happening with yours.
