CanStockPhoto.com / Did Can Stock raise prices?

« on: March 06, 2011, 12:06 »

I noticed my vectors are $15 instead of $10 now. Did they raise prices? Was there an overall raise or just for the eps?

Adobe Stock / How to delete account?

« on: January 20, 2011, 11:29 »

I'm done. What's the best way to delete your account at Fotolia? What is the minimum payout? Can I still keep my account to maintain a presence?

I didn't know if anyone had any experience with this.

CanStockPhoto.com / Can Stock Blowing Up!

« on: January 06, 2011, 22:10 »

It's been a slow beginning to 2011, but Can Stock is kicking butt. I don't know what kind of new year's resolutions they made over there, but I like it. Keep up the good work CanStockPhoto! Anyone else?

Has anyone used KTools Photostore? Or do you have another stock photo selling service/software that you prefer over that? Any real world experience, info, thoughts and opinions would be helpful. Thanks.

General Stock Discussion / How much do agencies spend on advertising?

« on: September 29, 2010, 11:42 »

With all the royalty adjustments over the last several years, the excuse of needing more to advertise has come up often. So, I was wondering how much companies actually payout in advertising. I was under the impression that in a typical agent/artist (contract work) deal that the agent gets around 20% and advertising is split 50/50 between the agent and artist. Would it make more sense to pay a portion of the advertising instead of giving up royalty percentages? How much could your share be spread out among all the contributors? Just a thought.

General Stock Discussion / Exclusive Preparations

« on: December 11, 2009, 14:37 »

After reading the recent news at iStock, I'm definitely considering becoming exclusive. I've got a while to think over the decision.

I was wondering if anyone had some advice on making the transition. I know Dreamstime is a 6 month wait and I think BigStock is 3 months. Were there any other pitfalls from other agencies that I need to be aware of?

I haven't made up my mind on the final decision, but I'd like to start the long term preparations now.

Did anyone else notice that they have 3 credit files at VectorStock? I logged in today and noticed I had a 3 credit sales. Did this just happen?
