New Sites - General / Re: kozzi.com anybody?
« on: September 28, 2012, 04:32 »
....it seems like all the images are contributed by Kozzi Inc.....
after 15 min search I cant find any other author than kozzi so please Dan, could you tell us (or maybe a link to) the name or username of at least 10 of those 100000+ contributors? Until now "the absolute best and most relevant images " and apparently the only ones that are present on your site belong to a contributor called Kozzi Inc, but maybe I am wrong. Ill be more than happy to play along  if this is indeed what you say it is.

Why does he need two red pens? :o

To note all the bugs on the site?  ;D

 Lol, true.

Somebody needs to let Jay know his blue pen is leaking  ;D
Yes! Jay, clean your nose too please.

I still think it's Jay's fault. This is what is happening when you bring pens on a computer based job, use a old keyboard and a bad chair. Nice vector tie tho...

Me too.  Looks like Bigstock now.  Except my numbers never change on BS.

No wonder our royalties get cut all the time if there are ppl among us willing to sell images for next to nothing. Agency owners really aren't stupid!
Thank you wut, I wasnt gonna sell them, was wondering if anybody will do that. You could think that those shots will earn you nothing for not being stock material but it is indeed a low price even if you keep the rights.

Thanks ShadySue, missed that one. Dont know if its the same person. What is funny thou is that my photos are like 5% of my online portfolio, my main income comes from graphics:)

I know nicku. :) Thank you
I have not sold him anything yet. He was asking for images that are not on microstock sites, probably the ones that are not that strong in stock therms . I guess my question was. Would you do it? I mean, you get paid for them, lousy but better than nothing still- he will give them for free.

General Photography Discussion / Individual sales inquiry
« on: June 06, 2012, 03:42 »
Hello everybody,
please help and advice.
I have been contact through a site (later conversation moved on to skype) by a person asking me if you want to sell him photos thats were not uploaded to microstock for  for a new project of his ( in my understanding Ill keep the rights and get pay for them but he will  give them for free for exposure) and when I asked for money I was told that ill get something like 200 EU for 2000 shots (if they are high quality shots). What is your opinion on this?
P.S. Not sure if this is the right place for this topic so sorry.
Thanks.

May is typically my third worst month of the year, despite the 31 day length. I am aware that my portfolio is built for summer and autumn performance, but I have seen enough complaints about May over the last 5 years to convince me that this is typical for many contributors.

For me personally, I would never upload to Pixmac purely because of what they were exposed doing...keeping contributor commissions.  When Zager says "mistakes happen" is when I call the BS card.  It took agencies to find repeatability in their error and I am sure there wasn't a rush to judgement by DT to sever their relationship upon the first discovery of a "mistake".  DT ultimately pulled the plug because they concluded that Pixmac wasn't on the up and up and subsequently severed their relationship with Pixmac.  So, for me personally, forget it.

They are dubious - IMHO

GLStock / Re: Graphic Leftovers has new Look
« on: March 01, 2012, 15:15 »
I think it's safe to say that Graphic Leftovers has earned his place in the middle tier, considering that they have accomplished so much in such a short period of time.

Not a particularly great "day in the life" profile, but still a few interesting images. Jon is an interesting guy. Definitely not your typical CEO. You could be sitting next to him at that pizza joint and never guess that you're sitting next the chief executive of one of the top stock image agencies in the world.

I think it was a very nice day. Wish all my days were like this, u cant get more creative than that.

Oh, ok:) Somehow I thought this option is only available for exclusive contributors, while trying to upload it still asking for eps8. Thx for your reply Susan.

Found a few eps10 illustration while browsing new uploads on Istock. I know there was a thread about this, just can't find it. Does anybody know anything about it?  Is Istock accepting eps10 now?
