123RF / Is there away to get total earnings/downloads per image on 123RF?

I haven't found one.

Anybody know if there is away to get the totals?

General Stock Discussion / Re: Lawsuit Against Us. Fair? Unfair? Need your advice

You have my sympathy and support.

The patent/trademark/copyright infringement system is a complete joke.

My full time job is in software, the patents that go through there are ridiculous.

The system isn't used for what it was intended for... it's just not right.

It's all about cash grabs.

Governments need to realize that all this litigation just takes time and effort away from the actual production of wealth for the country. (taking from those who have been successful) Lawyers get rich and the big guy usually wins.

Good Luck.

Definitely noticed this over the last couple weeks.

Older files (06 and 07) that hadn't been downloaded in years getting some action.

General Stock Discussion / Pro-Sports shots from the Stands... Can I License them?

« on: February 13, 2011, 14:39 »

With most of the micro's accepting editorial photos, I'm going through some of my old photos and looking for some that I passed over due to people in the photos and no MR.

I have a bunch of Pro-Sports photos which I took from the stands. ( MLB, AHL, NHL, NFL )

I always thought that you weren't allowed to sell these due to the fine print on the back of tickets, but when I look on ss or dt you'll find lots of pro-sports photos that were clearly shot from the stands. I've tried to look into this in the past and haven't had much success in getting a definitive answer.

So does anyone know if I can sell pro-sports photos I took from the stands as fan?

Best news about this is that it would seem to indicate that Shutterstock is not going to get bought out by Getty anytime soon.

As been mentioned by others, fewer major player agencies it is not good for us. Hopefully Dreamstime and Fotolia stay independent from the Getty and Shutterstock conglomerates. That will be best for all contributors.

You can't.

If it is important, I guess, you could mail an administrator.

I tried emailing them. I got a reply that they can't do it and the only way is to re-upload the image with the keyword added.

This is what I feared... ugh... thanks.
