Thank you for the useful and practical info. How about auto tracing - would you use Live Trace in AI or Corel Draw? Or is the choice dependent also on  the type of image?

I'm very picky and neither program fully satisfies me in terms of tracing. Simple things I do in Corel. When I need to do a complex trace - I try both with different settings. And then I pick the best trace.

How does Corel Draw compare to Adobe Illustrator for vectors? Is anybody using this program?

Some people participate in endless debate "Corel Draw vs Adobe Illustrator", wise people use the best of the both worlds. It is much faster and more effective to build main geometry of the vectors in Corel Draw. Adding special effects, working with colors - this is better implemented in Adobe Illustrator. I do main composition framework in CD, then paint  and color it in AI. Resulting EPS file will be more accurate if generated in AI.

I believe it would be polite if you provide the name of your country first. BTW, the 1000 euro in some places in Spain, for example, considered as "OK" income. Not "great", but OK. Making 1000 euro per month won't make a living in my country (Canada), but will give me enough to live in many other places, including some European countries. How much do you cost in your country?

Explore the Export tab in Bridge. I've created several different presets, some of them use new folder. You don't have to be a programmer, there is an easy interface - just a few controls to check.
BTW - try using search in Youtube like "Bridge Exporting". There are many related videos like this:

Good Luck.

I have more than 100 USD of the balance since February and haven't  received my money yet...
Should I worry?

Hi Paul,

I have two agencies that return me "Login Failed":
1. Colourbox
2. Shutterstock

I'm not that worried about Colourbox, but Shutterstock is one of the main reasons I  use  your app.  I'm quite happy with it, but could you check pls what is going on with these logins? I haven't changed logins for these agencies.
Thanks a lot!

Totally agree. At the same time - possibly there are artists who have to use these effects hundreds times a day. So may be... But for the average user... one good video tutorial might be more helpful...

If I want a coffee - I'll go to a cafe, not in the car dealership. And there are waaaaaay to many cafes with reputation already. And some dealerships are not quite hospital, just "looking for business".

...I have a hard time understanding whether this new business welcomes new "contributers"

I have been reading this forum for several years, finally decided to register.

Although I'm overfilled with bad feelings I want to be as constructive as possible.

First of all - 123rf rep [Alex] - pls stop telling us about your expenses. Every image that automagically appears on Inmagine has expenses too. There is no agency that has a spare second to listen about our expenses.

I have a few practical questions/suggestions to 123rf/Inmagine rep:

1. Pls provide us with step-by-step instructions for the opt-out procedure. This procedure should not just simply exclude our images from your search, but will make our works no longer a part of your database.

2. Pls answer a simple question:
if an Inmagine customer pays 10 USD for a file uploaded by 123rf contributor - how much 123rf contributor will get?
Pls be accurate. Just numbers. Exclude "it depends" - provide all dependencies.
Or a table with all variants. This is our money too.

3. Finally, the question of trust. I want my sales stats on Inmagine. I want to evaluate my losses. Date, file ID, sale price, my earnings. Many of us have IT background, so don't tell this is a complex query. It is trivial. Give us step-by-step instructions of how to request and finally get these numbers.

Rebuilding the reputation and trust is a tough job.
123rep, pls start with answers for these three practical questions.
