Veer / Re: 9 sales today at Veer
« on: February 22, 2010, 18:09 »
10 sales for me, 6 large and 4 med., non US sales. A couple of them are duplicates. They don't seem to be related. Photos sold of a june beetle, storm clouds, cat, toad, CDs, nest egg, zebra and butterfly. Strange. Glad I stuck with these guys.  ;D

213 downloads away from Silver. Not that I'm going exclusive any time soon.  ;)

Most of these aren't very "stock" oriented. The photo with the bottle and the couple could be a good concept photo but it is too dark and looks too out of focus. Bad lighting on the eagle, can't really tell if that's a wren on the windowsill, already LOTS of photos of mallards online. I like the christmas tree in the snow.

My personal opinion is that these types of photos might do better and be more appreciated by a site like Photocase.

I liked the music and it was beautifully made.

Here's an owl feather I traced from one of my photos in Illustrator, first time I've tried using a photo as a template (the original photo is 2nd). Haven't done many illustrations even though I have a BA in this area. Was trying to get the photography up to snuff first.

New Sites - General / Re: The 3D Studio - anyway selling there?
« on: February 01, 2010, 14:19 »
Oh my gosh!
Finally got my first sale for $2.40 after months of nothing.
I have 293 photos online and 25,363 product views.
Guess I'll keep uploading the rest of my portfolio and hope for more uploads this year.

BME for me with IS hitting it out of the park (3 ELs) with almost 500 images online there. 43% increase from Jan. 09.  :)

Have not had many photos accepted but still like the site. There is a lot of encouragement amongst the members and an interesting library of photos. I don't mind the photo sharing. I've used all of my credits and download photos for wallpaper. Still think its good to have a different point of view for photography than just traditional stock.

I have been submitting 10 unique photos to the Getty Flickr group for a few months now but none accepted yet. Will keep trying. :)

I don't remember the Mac people posting SPAM videos and ads in the Windows 7 thread?
Have a little class guys.

There is a touch keyboard. Almost the same size as a laptop.

@Kngkyle and Tom you know you want one. ;)

Watching the the video on the Apple website brought tears to my eyes!
I'll probably buy one. Been thinking about an ereader for awhile and this will be perfect.

An LED monitor came with my new Mac Pro. Absolutely STUNNING quality. Made my LCD HD Cinema Display look like crap.

The opposite has happened for me. 2 ELs plus better than average sales and a lot of first time downloads. Heading for a BME on IS. :)

The pattern on the plate is very busy and distracts the eye from the main subject. Better to use a white or off white plate.

Full time job as graphic artist at an ad agency. Weekends I go hiking with a local group, bird watching with Knoxville Chapter of Tennessee Ornithological Society. Walking/jogging, exercise classes during the week, read fiction, watch good movies, help fellow photographers get photos ready to join agencies. No other family at home except cats :)

Off Topic / Re: First month after converting to Mac
« on: January 07, 2010, 06:39 »
I messed up my new Mac Pro Quad-Core when I tried to copy over 7 years of crap from my old machine. Found out it is best to start with a clean slate and only install the applications I use regularly. Works like a charm now and its blazing fast. :)

Yep, got the email this morning.

None of their photos are available for download but they still say this on their About page:

"Working Title Images is Europe's leading community based stock photography and image network. The website exists as an online exchange to bring together photographers, designers, illustrators and creatives with individuals, companies charities and organisations who require photos and images for various projects, design ideas."

Dreamstime.com / Re: More than usual rejections from Dreamtime
« on: December 22, 2009, 11:06 »
My rejection rate has been a lot lower the last few months but for a while there they were rejecting unique, one of a kind photos of isolated feathers such as barred owl and osprey wing feathers as being too similar when there were 0 feathers like that uploaded anywhere. Whatever.
