Cameras / Lenses / Re: You Have to Check Out This New Sigma Lens!« on: March 08, 2007, 18:24 »
I just read that a 2X Teleconverter is supplied with the lens, that makes 400-1000mm, how nice and even more on a lot of digital cameras like on the D20 because of the crop factor.
But I guess you cannot be on your own anymore. You need a team i guess. At least two people to carry the lense and the massive tripod which is required ![]() 903
Adobe Stock / Re: Totally crashing on Fotolia« on: March 07, 2007, 15:11 »Since February I am having the hardest time with Fotolia. I used to sell there steadily if not spectacularly a couple or three pics a day making my way up to just under 200 pics sold and then - nothing. A week can go by without a sale. Then they trickle in for a few days, onesies and twosies if I am lucky and then nothing again.I experienced the exact same thing.. 3,4 month ago. Now the earnings increased a little bit, but in no comparison to the other sites. Fotolia is falling far behind the other agencies. no 5 of the big 6. 904

Yeah, they give you money, just for acceptance. I submitted 5 and one of it was accepted. But that was also the best I would say.

StockXpert.com / Re: When Did StockXpert Change The Default Sort Order?« on: March 01, 2007, 11:34 »
Well I agree, what about the new Images, but if the overall sales have increased 30% I do not mind the change. For me it is good. I think I am one of the people who benefited from this. The earnigs have gone up for me about 30%. The thing I do not like at SS is, that you constantly have to upload images.

Hi Tina,
I am on two German sites. Panthermedia.net and Pitopia. On Panthermedia I have an average earning of 20 a month. That is about half the money I earned this month at StockXpert. I have 100 images online at Panthermedia.net. I just started at Pitopia, so I do not know how Pitopia goes, no dl so far.. Also weiss ich nicht wieviel dir das bringt ![]() 913

Hi Snem,
why don't you contact the newspaper. Maybe they did it on accident and are not aware of the limits of the license. I know the world is full of cheaters, but once in while you might meet someone who is honest or repents when convicted ![]() 916

There is a really nice tool at google.
If you have a specific object like, lets say rocket, type in in the google search engine: " define: rocket" You get all kinds of definition of rocket. through the definitions you can pick up keywords which describe the object. 918

Dreamstime.com / Re: DT Percentage of Acceptance« on: February 09, 2007, 10:30 »
58,3 % but lately it got worse.. Certainly also my fault. Since the implemented that feature which allows you to choose that other people will keyword your image for 20c I have been a bit careless about quality. Either they take it or not. I do not have a lot of work with the images. I just have to upload them. If they reject them, I get my 20c back and just have wasted 15sec for the upload.

So probably the English version translates from other languages in English. So if you would use Xenia's or mine Referral link for Panthermedia, that would be nice ![]() If you register I would recommend you to register as "Salesman" or "FC-Standard" thats for free. For Keywords as I mentioned somewhere else, you can get them translated on SS or IS, there is an option to switch to another language. If you have any further questions.. Happy uploading ![]() 923
