General Stock Discussion / Re: Microstock Earnings - May 2011

Fantastic month at SS, that's my 2nd month in there though and it's really doing great for me. Bad month as for IS, FF, BigStock.

General Stock Discussion / Editorial or RF?

« on: September 09, 2010, 17:11 »

Hey,

I happen to have this image in my flickr photostream of an iPod nano - http://www.flickr.com/photos/waseef/4972409748/# , and I now want it to submit to the 4 top tier microstock sites. So, would this image do well in editorial or shall I change the screen to black and submit it as an RF? (abviously the texts will be removed)

Thanks!

Here's a site to give you an idea what to charge.

I wouldn't give it away for free and I would clone out the company logo unless they give you the ok to use it....in writing. Also if you sell the shot make sure you get payment up front.

This really helped me.. Thank you all! I know the photo is in really poor quality and composition.. But he asked for it and I couldn't give it for free. I asked him for $150. I hope that's an average cost.

Okay.. this is my first ever thread here.. couldn't decide which category should this belong to.. Sorry admins/mods if this is posted in wrong category.

Well, I've been contacted by a flickr member asking for this photo of mine http://www.flickr.com/photos/waseef/2851057533/#sizes/l/ for a project of an educational institution. You can see the company logo prominently on the photo. His demo webapp is here http://wendlink.com/magpie and I just don't wanna give it for free. A few images similar to that has been used by the company officially, but not this one. And I just can't decide that should I tell him to use Getty's Request to license, will they allow selling the image with a logo if somebody needs it? or should I ask him to give me a few bucks for it. Also suggest me how much is this worth?

I´ll let you know what he says in the email later on...
