....... I still see people getting excited about having Vetta acceptances.

Of course! a large/XL vetta sale is equivalent to 6-7 regular sales if you're at 35/40% or even 100 main subscriptions sales ..... add to the fact that Vetta is mirrored to Getty, it can easily save your monthly earnings!! So yes, I'm excited when I've got a new Vetta, yet it doesn't mean I'm having a good month. Actually June is heading to a serious disaster.......
I wonder if image exclusivity is in the talking because as it stands it's seriously unsustainable!!

Thanks for sharing the link.
Some great Images are nominated! The wittiest category is Fun!! 

Hi!

$ has been losing recently to EURO and other European currencies. A question to fellow European contributors - How do you handle this problem? Do you exchange your dollars on Paypal as soon as a payment arrives, or do you wait for better times to make an exchange (then your are not only a stock photographer but also a broker ! ) ?

Not to mention that Paypal steals takes 2,5% from the currency exchange....

I convert $ to �. The exchange rate has been horrendous for the last few months. I withdraw every week or asap from paypal to my account. I don't think I'm loosing that much over the year.
Paypal charges are relatively good money for the service they provide. After all they are a Business like we all are :-) and  i get the ��� in 2 hours into my account, it used to be 3-4 business day.
