Hi,

I just sold my first picture for $ 0,25. I know the picture they bought. But for what kinda size did they bought the picture? Or even what kinda license?

Regards,
Dijkcity

I've got the answer, quote from SS:

25-A-Day Downloads
Buyers subscribe on a monthly basis and can download up to 750 images over the course of 30 days. Your cut? Shutterstock will pay you 25 cents every time one of your images is downloaded, with a tiered set of raises to 33 cents, 36 cents and 38 cents per download as you reach the $500, $3,000 and $10,000 lifetime earning milestones, respectively. This subscription model encourages buyers to download a greater volume of images than they would at most other agencies, and commissions for our submitters can add up fast.

Newbie Discussion / How to improve new photo ratio?
« on: October 16, 2014, 15:05 »
Hi all!

Since January 2014 I started with making pictures. I got a Nikon D5100 and Nikon 70-200 f/2.8 and I like it a lot. Also I'm enthusiast about having a new perception, to make photo's of a cup of coffee for example. It's also nice to get known with Photoshop CC.

Anyway, I read lots of people upload thousands of pictures.

  • How can they do that?
  • Do they edit every uploaded picture to get a title, keywords and all that?
  • How can someone make so much different pictures?
  • Can we upload series too?
 

I'm a bit confused. Off course I'm a starter. I just got like 5 photo's at Fotolia, 11 on 123RF, 3 on Dreamstime. My editorial ones with people are easily accepted. By iStock too, but there for I had to make a better description of the happening.

Of course I'm very new, but I spend a lot of time making pictures. I guess I will try to make isolated pictures, and more of people.
What do you think about the questions above and how do you experience this?

iStockPhoto.com / Keywords appear different
« on: October 16, 2014, 14:31 »
Hi,

I'm very new, so sorry for this question.

Whenever I enter a keyword, iStock will change it in suggestions that they do.

Color change to colors. Run to running, girls to little girls / teenage girls, etc.... so it is pretty annoying.
When using the application.. I thought I could clarify the meaning of 'color' and so on. Not that I like to change them.

But anyway, iStock is just changing them, also when I'm not choosing this suggestions.

How can I bypass this 'suggestion' system?

123RF / How does the credit system work if you sell?
« on: October 16, 2014, 12:50 »
Hi, I started with photography in January 2014 and have a very little experience with stockphoto's.

Here is the issue:

When I check my portfolio when not logged in, I can see the price is different for every format.
At their manual they tell you will earn like $ 0,21 for 0-249 downloads. But that is for every 1 credit or every download?

The website is not clear in that IMO.
