Fd-amateur, why do you make up stories without checking first? The account you're referring to has been inherited and proper legal documentation has been provided. Consequently rights were transferred properly and revenue is paid accordingly.

umm can you please tell me who inherited the account because im his daughter. and unless it was his other daughter, my sister, that person has no rights to the account

To all: I apologize for my off-topic response to baby.miz

Jennifer,

I have often wondered this myself. Your father was not exclusive so it will be difficult at best to try and track down all of his sites. I would venture to guess that he was on 10-15 sites at a minimum. If there was an estate attorney I would check with them. If his accounts were not properly disclosed into this estate I can see where it could get real nasty ... especially if someone did a quick grab of his computer and or was able to retrieve his account IDs and passwords. On the other hand ... it was my guess that MIZ knew he was dying. He once spoke of trying to sell everything for an insanely low number.

It is also possible he voluntarily transferred his digital properties to someone prior to his death without it being in a will or without other instructions. This would likely difficult to disprove if the have physical possession of any of his assets or paid, or cared for him in any way.

My guess is that someone may be pocketing MIZ's royalties without a formal transfer or property at each agency. Only the agencies would know if this has taken place or not.

My advice to you would be to contact an attorney if you think you are the rightful heir to his digital assets. Your view may be opposed especially if you weren't close to him. Whether your his daughter or not would certainly come into question, but more importantly, whether or not you are the legal heir with the proper paperwork will be the agencies primary concern.

Thank you , you have been very helpful. I am not really worried about it, I was just curious if someone was getting paid from my father's hard work. And someone had said something about an account being inherited or something. Thank you for your time tho!!!!

i stand corrected...and so does my father haha thanx

Underfund.

i could be wrong but i dont believe 'underfund' is actually in the dictionary....i know what it MEANS but i dont think that its in there. i looked it up. like i said, i could be wrong. i didnt make up the question, my father did. hahaha he was usually right tho. underground is the answer he told me.

litifeta, I think of your blog post on dreamstime sometimes. It expressed quite the way that I was feeling, too.

I was quite new to microstock when TheMiz died, and also I'm not a native speaker of English, so I think I can't have appreciated his posts to the full. But a few of his statements have stuck in my mind. One of them being that he didn't upload any image that he was not convinced of 100 percent. Another one being that isolations are a hard job to do - no easy way out, no short cut. I browse through his posts sometimes, and each time I find it really sad to see "offline" on his profile page.

I can fully relate to what his daughter is looking for here. Quite a while after I lost my father I went all the way through Europe visiting people and places to find him, and I loved to hear anything that people had to say about him that I didn't know of. And I only realized what I had been doing when I returned back home, at the time, I thoght I simply was on a vactation to England.

Thank you, Stardust. it really means a lot that someone can relate.

Im looking for people that knew my father and would like to find out what impression he left on people.

What impression did he leave on you?

i went to go live with my father when i was 15. he was...hard to live with to say the least. but then again i am my fathers daughter so therefore i wasnt exactly an ANGEL either. he was one of the MOST INTELLIGENT people ive EVER met!!!! he loved trivia and quirky facts that no one knew about. i remember he asked me what was the only word in the english language that started with 'und' and ended with 'und' and i couldnt use the internet to find the answers. he tried teaching me photoshop but i just wasnt interested. my favorite memories of him are friendly's ice cream and one fight we had where he asked me if i thought i was smarter than him and i replied "yes, i KNOW im smarter than you. but dont worry dad, i know i too will get dumber with age!!" hahahhaa

Okay....hmmm i know NOTHING about this site...im just Bob (the Miz) daughter. i was reading the comments. now i dont have his computer but i know who does and he may be able to access his work. if anyone wants to email me its [email protected]

I will quote one of multiple personal message exchanges I had with your father. The first was back on February 03rd, 2008.

"Hello Mark,

It's very kind of you to want to visit my website. Please keep in mind,
It is definitely NOT a Microstock  forum. We sorta of shy away
from the subject of Microstock, since we represent fine art photography.

Here is the link you requested: http://unnaturalphotos.com/

Have fun,
The MIZ"
