...but files attached to 'the + collection' are locked in it for 6 months... fortunately, it doesn't make them exclusive.

Hi,
I just found that my friends are customers of ImageSource.com stock site. Unfortunately I can't find anything about their numbers (sales, royalties, etc.). "Image Source is the world's leading independent producer" - anything more than that?

OK, I guess the magic '5' works. Try to press F5, still no sales... F5, F5, still nothing about royalties... 5th? Maybe today is The Day! Waiting for the News then!

Mentioned artefacts and noise, over-saturation, everything caused by high ISO. From my experience, Canon 50D gives unacceptable noise above 200 ISO, and there is no point to take pictures (even in the studio, strobes - visible artefacts in processing software). I understand that there was no chance to compromise good time (1/80) with your wide open lens, but processing it in correct program with noise reduction/downsize should help (Of course, if you have raw file...)

Do you really care? Exclusives should be happy, Non-exclusives (like me) should enjoy better sales elsewhere. This game is not about quality, great owners, successful or not PR campaign, gadgets, but about prices (as Yuri discovered recently). And the winners is...?

I think this is not good idea to publish hi-res images without watermarks or any copyright protection.
If you take pictures to sell them don't let people to steal them.
This hint is for free.

Hi,
Unlike other sites SS has no sales statistics attached to individual photos (client's front end). I can't find them in the contributor's back-end either.
'The latest downloads' map gives me an idea which images are popular, but I would appreciate your suggestion as to where I can find the detailed stats. Thank you.

I use (sometimes) Yashica 124 TLR - it is very handy, light and reliable. In fact it is only 3,5 wide open but works for me.
There is still problem with processing - I can't find pro studio (close enough) to develop colours in London...

Maybe idea 'how to gain contributor's favour' turned into 'we have technical problems again'.

Thanks for the link, I know this thread.
Unfortunately, scouts and moderators (especially in istock) use similar excuse to reject everything containing word 'Auschwitz'.
So... sometimes not existing 'Nazi war memorabilia', sometimes 'elements protected by Intellectual or Industrial property laws'?
As I said before - people in Museum and lawyer don't see any problem, Fotolia and iStock do?

Hi,
Scouts from big stock agency rejected my images (taken in Auschwitz) with the info that they contain elements protected by Intellectual or Industrial property laws.
Could you please help me understand that in terms of 'laws breaking' - what was wrong, because I cannot find a reason why open, historical, public place can be copyrighted (World Heritage List in 1979 on the basis of criterion 6), and images uploaded (most of them) did not contain memorabilia or properties mentioned in this property law (contacted mentioned Museum and asked lawyer working in this 'area'.
So where is the problem? Is the rejection just internal policy or is there another important reason...?
