You may want to consider "Freewebs"...Google i tried it but not very intuitive but the look is clean and free from clutter....so thats the good thing. http://www.freewebs.com/mygardenofeden/It's even easier to set up a website here.....also allows you to change the look and feel of the skin as you wish......

Yah....when i get checks....i need to pay the bank 10-30% of the amt! I once had a US$150 check but in the end I had to pay US$20 or more to the bank!
Check how much it cost to cash the cheque.....paypal tend to be a better option though the exchange rate is not great

it is incredibly difficult to open a bank account in UK.....too much money laundering in that country, so they make difficult to open a bank account. Really difficult, believe me....it took me ages to open one even with all the proper documents.

Congrats....i am not sure about pricing at this point...i and many like me have yet to hit 100 downloads.... so no slideshow for us

i dont think we should spend money on the slideshow....i believe we should not spend money at all.....i am a practical person....Johnny, better off to exchange it with someone and get cash in hand....i prefer cash in hand any time....all these gadgets are marketing gimmick.....
that's the role of the marketing dept, to do somehting interesting and exciting and build up the hype...something new that will arouse attention and interest. At the end of the day, whether the thing sells or not is another matter....but there has to be a buzz around talking about it....generating sales is one of the impt things, but building image and buzz is equally imot in marketing......i think the co should be the one paying for the marketing and not the photographer...come on, we only get 30% on the sales right? 70% already used for the marketing, personnel, datbase etc....should we eat into the 30% for more marketing hype? I dont think so....
Anyways, those who reach 100 should just jump in now and take the free ride till July 07, see the results and then make a decision whether to pay or not...at least you have tried and you know if it is useful to you...

I am just disappointed that they did not reward people who have been with them despite the slow sales and stayed in the game.

It has been discussed before, many veteran says it does not, it merely gives you greater exposure, even Laurin Rinder says it does not.
-> The advise is always dont go Exclusive with any stock sites and dont put all your eggs in one basket. -> Its ebb and flow. istock is not doing too well for me this month. I did better in Jan and Feb 07. Wish it will pick up. istock generally is good but the downloads goes up and down. They keep changing the alogrithm every few weeks or so. I hope they dont keep this one. All the flames are in the first few pages.

Hi Eco. Thanks for telling us. Can I know what kind of images you are selling from the downloads? I see people with > 1000 images but not the kind of downloads you have. I am embarassed myself to tell how many downloads I got, its in the lower range definitely.

The stats are a dismay to look at. Looks like 2/37 is 5% even come to that 100 downloads and the rest of us are not even near .

oopss....sorry to those that have voted....i just reset the statistics to make it tighter for those under 100, so that we all can have a better sense of where we are at.
Pls vote again.

Hi all. Was wondering how many people can even meet the min 100 downloads that LO has for the new features. Knowing the dismay downloads there, would love to see this statistics

i wonder how many people have 100 downloads at LO.....its okie to have 100 downloads in other sites but at LO???
We can even do a poll and see who has 100 downloads at LO....that will be interesting

oh wowo,,.yah this is a world untapped market. Hope that this will soon led to the non-exclusives too ...But its hard to say given the fact that istock likes to promote the interests of the exclusives.

Question :-
Have you had any sales?
Sorry if i sound cynical and weary. I am barely in stock for less than 1 year but already its been a pain to upload in new stock sites without sales.
