you guys need to start answering emails too :-\

or are we going for only top contributors?

That's exactly what I was wondering.  I hate to go through all the uploading work to have SF level sales. And the sub thing, unfortunately, is a proven model that even the likes of Pocketstock can't, in some form, pass on.

Not just Top Contributors ... I got an email from therm.   :-[

and ?  ;D

yep just watching, remember when I was in school, once we lost 12 0, I was the goalkeeper lol

3955
a lot lower and back to the subs after a bme with credits ::)

just noticed this month we have only 21 week days vs 23 from last month :-\

Is anyone here taking part in Sportguru's tournament?

never heard of it, just checking it out this minute

3957
I couldn't watch it, I had a training, but would watch the game anyway. Greeks are not watchable, it's a great shame such a team won the tournament in 04. I'm watching Russia: Czech republic right now. Poor football again, at least when it comes to Czech and their defense (looks like 8th graders are playing on those positions:), not up to the task

exactly, Greece is just too much, for me football is all in the attack not the way they play it but today they kind of made some good attacks too

3958
poor Greece but actually I liked it once we portuguese lost the final in 2004 ;D

very sad since I know you are one of the best in the business. Thus no patterns or particular types of photos...

sorry stockmarketer but you arent making much sense  ;D

first you say FT wants similars, second that DT is working on the other way, only best shoots, finally you said you love SS, and they are working on the same way as FT no? once they are approving all pictures from a session!

that said I believe that pictures should be approved in terms of quality and sure not 100 of the exact same object or people pose

He was insanely good in la liga, 46 goals :o . Indeed, just like Messi, can't score for Argentina as well (Higuain and others have to do the job, but they really have a ton of top drawer strikers).

Yes, the group of death. I hope Portugal and Netherlands advance to quarterfinals

not an easy group yep, the problem with Portugal is the first 10 minutes, if they score its all good, if not its a disaster, I believe we will do insanely bad on the first game like always but after that we will learn the lesson.. portuguese team kind of give up if other team score, not like most of other big teams :-\

3967
ahah that said lets continue the futebol talk :D I am never very positive and I believe most players like you have talked about are really good, CR is certainly the star of the stars but we portuguese always think that he does play very well in his club not for Portugal, I hope he continues as strong as in Real ;D

we have a very difficult group too, cant wait to see how it goes...

3968
as you may know here we call it "futebol", I have said soccer because it just sound better on a forum I guess once football is their rugby but actually most people on this forum are Europeans no?

3969
true, woman are becoming more and more sports fan and I guess soccer in particular (believe its not only about players legs or other) perhaps they got sick of going to shopping or staying in home when man are out having a few beers watching their teams

the other great thing of watching here in Portugal is the stunning weather, we have tons of big screens around the famous squares and its just a stunning atmosphere, sure other capitals have this kind of show too

3970
Portugal is my fav too, I guess thats easy once I am portuguese, looking forward for the first game in Saturday, like you said its a lot of fun and I will watch Portugal and other games too, not that I am a big soccer fan but the EURO or WORLD cup is just too good to miss!

just hope that Portugal got over and forget the 2 first friendly games were we sucked..

started a few months ago there, they are very helpful and the upload is great (files on FTP and done, not a single click afterwards)

a few sales too but still very low

Mines still at 50. Could it be based on acceptance rate perhaps? Not that they publish those figures explicitly, but surely they keep them

don't know about that one but I have 60% approval ratio there, first the alamy migration now this, they need to keep us updated...

The FTP upload is easy but there's a lot of clicks to go through after they pass review.  I'll upload some of my portfolio but will need some sales to spend much time there.

exactly, I can see at least 3 clicks per picture if it hasnt MR, perhaps time for PS to drop them :D

our profile aint showing up our portfolio too..

3974
Well yes. Sales are few still, but regular and increasing. More than I expected. peopleimages.com will not be able to compete against the big buys in the marketplace. We are too specialized.
For the right kind of client we are perfect however. And we are starting to see that, because our customers are absolutely crazy about us. One actually sent me a pair of socks to my private adress, thanking me for finally giving them a "proper" workplace. There must be a pretty big built up pressure inside some of these designers.
Socks... Can you believe that! :)

I seriously believe you should keep that to yourself, if I was a buyer, even a very weird one I would like to have my privacy, but hey sure you wont be fired because of this post :D

3975
down and not a credit sale this month, very weird compared to last month..
