Question from SS forum: "For those of us who are not on BigStock - would it make sense to start uploading our images there, or will you eventually copy them there?"

No immediate plans - so best to upload to both. We'll make sure to make it worth your while :)

1440 x 1080 is the pixel dimension.
I came from a print background and was a bit confused at first about using pixels instead of inches and dpi.

I like it so far. :) I haven't put much work into uploading templates yet but get some sales. The $20 art file sales are especially nice.

Yep, great shot! The lighting is good and the contrast of red and green makes it interesting. I bet this will be a best seller on more than one site. :)

256
Don't have many templates uploaded, less than 40, and get occasional sales. RPD is very high compared to microstock sites. :)

257
I really wonder what's going on with DT? Lowest number of downloads in the first half of Sept. in many months. All the other top sites are doing well, especially IS and SS with ELs.

Pretty cool! I think I've seen the trap door spider on nature shows. I have spiders all around my house.

Rack cards are a truncated version of a flyer.

Here are some sample rack cards

Rack cards are two sided, one panel brochures on card stock that are given away at visitor centers and hotels/motels here in the US advertising attractions.

1. Inconsistent sales.
2. Inconsistent image reviews

It's some type of spiny orb weaver. Maybe this one.

Yep. 368 images with no keywords but I can find images when searched.

My ad agency is finding holes in the image libraries all the time. Of course I ad these missing items to my shot list. ;D

Alamy.com / Re: I got first sale on Alamy
« on: August 27, 2009, 08:40 »
Another sale  :) which makes the second sale in 2 months about 1 year after starting to upload to Alamy.

896 KB
683 x 448 pixels
63 KB compressed
$ 48.43 I get $29.06 for a pic of herbal medicine

Now I'm more motivated to shoot for Alamy but first I'm going through all my keywords to make sure they are set up correctly, making sure there are not too many and they are put in the right place.

Also, if you don't think your copyright violation and termination are a problem and you can just start over, you have a very rough road ahead of you.

268
Started uploading in May.
Now in August have 457 photos online and three 30 subscription sales this month.
Not very impressive, but hope to get some of the higher sales soon. :-\

269
I still can't believe the number of views you get in such a short period of time.

Does anyone use Fetch? It's inexpensive and I've used it for many years on my Macs.

At SS click on Details - Go to the bottom of the page look for:

Gross Earnings
(click here for your actual payment history) :

click on "payment history"

and there is a plus under "Click for Details".
sorry for confusion :-X

274
Interesting statistics from SS. I'm from the US and last month had 64% of downloads from US and 36% from non US sources.

I was looking for a bowl of ice cream, a glass of milk, a cup of coffee and glass of cola. After entering keywords and clicking the search button it would sometimes take more than 30 seconds to go to the page. >:( Really annoying!

When I did a search for glass of milk on DT it took about 1 second to get my results. That is a huge difference.
