iStockPhoto.com / Re: When, where and how do ELs show up?
« on: February 15, 2011, 19:59 »
Did you have any of the long delayed subscription downloads? They finally managed to get a script to run last night that added our past due balances. See the help forum thread for details.

It's not yet clear if this fixes the problem or just makes payments to date.

As far as EL's Sean's Greasemonkey scripts really help, but otherwise you can check your financials tab on the user_view.php page (should be sortable by date but I don't think they fixed that yet).

hmmm I was thinking from where did that 0.69$ come from, thanks

For me it's nothing about this particular photo itself, or the quality of a specific artist's portfolio, be him a photographer, a painter, a sculpturer, whatever. It's just that it is insane to pay that much money for anything of the kind.  I find it insane enough when I read about a Van Gogh or a Picasso reaching also several million of dollars in an auction.  Maybe if it was the only left work of an artist, or one with a very special history behind it, but not in general.


The classic arts/painters like van Gogh, Piccasso, etc, is a totally differant story, their art is looked upon as an investment, like them or not, its something which never, ever loose in value.
This shot by Lik however, must have been bought rather for its appeal then investment.

dont agree, if it was really purchased for a million it will be forever a million, it can only increase.. of course there is always the need to find a person who is willing to pay.. if he has 14 galleries I believe there is an investment in art, not only from himself but other looking to purchase it.. or he is totally insane!

US$8 for a 50 credit sale is not speculation.

right :)

If you are a non-exclusive Bronze ranked photographer dealing in American Dollars and you sell an EL for 50 credits you should receive $11.50. 

What am I missing here?

if it is a US sale.. :P

and then there the US account I have instead of european, another ridiculous and lot of advantageous to FT.. (cant understand why they cannot change it without getting a new account, absurd..)

Can you imagine this sceanario:

One sells a $1million image on IS, then IS takes 80% of it, so one would get $200 000, and IS gets $800 000. Then of course, one have to pay tax, so here in Canada (not 100% sure) I guess you would pay 40-50% tax on that. In the end, you'd get $120 000 max on a $1million sale.

Not worth it at all. :P

iStock is taking 85%.. (but for Peter they would have open an exception)

« on: February 11, 2011, 16:27 »
I've been setting up a Zazzle store and all the products too expensive to me, so I set my commissions low.   How many people are going to buy a $25 t-shirt or a $15 coffee cup, on impulse?   

yep.. but actually my zazzle store was done in 5h at a weekend in 2009, got 75$ so far..
