Thanks. Just want to reduce the chance of eronious reject by say placing it in Nature since smoke is natural. Istock does not really have a basic Backgrounds or Abstract Cat.

The Flogging with the Cat-o-nine tails obviously was too much for them.

On the serious side... did you write them in disagreement with a rejection or something?

Question: Do you accept Raster Illustrations or do you take the same position as Istock and basically only allow Vector Illustrations.

Sint... I see your in Potsdam. Nice area. Was stationed on Teufelsberg in Berlin during the fall of the Wall. Took a trip out in Potsdam one time just to wander around. I miss Germany.. or the way I remember it. I hear Berlin changed alot since the US Army pulled out.

I have not tried this but it sounds a little interesting. the 500 deal....if you dont have 500 images (thats me) you still get the money or does it have to be for 500?

Also, what is the payout on there and do they payout through Paypal?

Currently I am Eyeballing Etsy. Work it sort of like POD. If someone buys, then go print out what size I was selling. Got an account but I am not pulling the trigger yet.

Cool. At least you were able to find the problem quickly instead of days of searching for the bug.

BigStock went to the Arctic for me. It's froze.

Same here - If it wasn't for the takeover I would have closed my account. Now it's just a case of wait & see!

The take over time was when it went dead for me. I dont know whats up. Still uploading though.

I finally took a look over there. It's Different I must say. Kinda like if Flickr all of a sudden allowed you to sell your images. Flickr does have some great images on it along with the little "what is that" snaps. I am not saying it's a bad thing though. It's just a different style. If it sells then keep at it.

I think I might have a go at it and see.

Edit: Signed up and got 10 for review. Got to wait and see ... along with Warren...lol.

Got this today...

We are sending you this email because you are selling Stock Images at The3dStudio.com and we are upgrading our site to offer more services to our contributors and customers. We have two important items to mention, please read this entire email!

400 pixel size announced

One of the most commonly requested items we get from customers is for a smaller image size so we are introducing a 400 pixel size starting with all images that are being added from November 2nd and on. The minimum (and suggested) price for this new �X-Small� size is $2.00 USD.

This should prove to be a very popular size and will give The3dStudio.com an edge as we ramp up our Stock Image business since customers can now buy a single image for $2.00 on our site. No goofy credits and no subscriptions needed!

All images that were added before November 2nd will AUTOMATICALLY be upgraded to this new size over the new few days. If you prefer to NOT sell your images added before 11/2/2009 at this new size then please contact us by replying to this email. By default, we will set the X-Small price to � of the �Medium� price you have for each image.

Extended License option released

The second most popular request we get from customers is for an Extended License option that goes beyond the standard Royalty Free license we offer. So, we just released an Extended License option for all images being added from November 2nd and on.

Our Extended License is designed to give customers more options at a premium price. No more confusing licensing choices for the customer to pick as one Extended License fits all at The3dStudio.com.

With an Extended License the buyer may:

+ Use the image in print or electronically an unlimited amount of times.

+ Use the image in a physical item for resale or other consideration. i.e. photo used on a t-shirt, calendar, or greeting card for sale.

+ Use the image electronically in website templates, document templates, software products, wallpapers, screensavers, e-cards or similar products with no limitations regarding the number of copies and/or number of times image is seen.

All images that were added before November 2nd will AUTOMATICALLY be upgraded to this new Extended License over the new few days. If you prefer to NOT sell your images added before 11/2/2009 under this new Extended License then please contact us by replying to this email and we will not upgrade your products to the new Extended License. By default, we will set the Extended License price to $250.00 USD. The Extended License is optional on all newly added images as well, so you can decide if you want to offer this Extended License or not for each image you sell.

Thank you,
Matt Anderson - President

Ok. Here are the Stats from Google Analytics. I would Post Products on Facebook and MySpace and Show and Tell Forum of Zazzle. I would do the same thing with the Squidoo "Lenses". I made 4 Lenses so far.

From what I see...it helps more than promoting on Facebook and Myspace. I have only had 1 sale of Stickers so far.

I do not know about the aol and google mail referrals either.

That doesn't excuse bad spelling and grammar for those born, raised and educated in the US. I forgive the rest of the world, you all have made an outstanding effort to learn English.

So you forgive the British?
