I just had my first sale at SV. This gives me a handy $3, enough to buy three waffles at lunch today. Ok, so now we know that SV can attract buyer(s). They have a few things going for them. Their uploading process is very fast (although they don’t provide FTP batch uploads), they will keyword for you, you can set your own prices and they are owned by Corbis. This latter fact has baffled me for a while. You’d think they had the resources to shape up their web pages more than they have. They’ll have to step up quite a bit to keep afloat with iStock and the others dominating the game. Good luck to them; now I’ll consider uploading more of my portfolio (at least I would if they had an FTP server, how hard can it be?).
