When I was a newspaper photographer, chefs were the worst people to work with in general. There were exceptions, and a few that were great, but overall I found it easier to do shoots with movie stars than chefs, even though they have less handlers. Likely the case here.

The practice goes back forever. I used to buy stock occasionally from stock agencies and they would send me a whack of transparencies. We paid for what we used (and returned the transparencies). It's the way the business operates and to not allow ad agencies to download comps would be counter productive.

Standby on that one ....

It's a game of semantics -  partners or resellers. Years back I used to license photos with Gamma. If they had another agency sell an image for them (which I had to approve) Gamma got 50% and the other agency got 50%. I received my 50% (25% or the gross) of Gamma's take. Pretty simple math.  These convoluted partnership arrangements are just unfair to the photographer. I guess better quit living in the past!

Bought it, used it for a while, but in the end I am back to my mouse. I think the problem is I do not have the time for the learning curve. it was slowing me down too much.  Maybe when I have some time I will go back and give it another try.

It can take a little while to get the muscle memory going (and it does help if you just go cold turkey). I hope you give it another try at some point because it really is a huge difference. Or just switch to Lightroom for all your processing where I'd expect you'd not notice the problems with a mouse as much

I use both Lightroom and PS Jo Ann, in that order so I'm sure the tablet would be an asset. I will have to give it another try when I have time.

I understand all of that and report my earnings and expenses, etc., however, I still don't see why I would specifically need a separate Paypal account rather than use my personal account. I'm Canadian so there will be some differences in reporting, but I'm unclear. If my income from stock increased by a significant amount, I would likely channel it through a separate company, but not sure it is necessary at this point.

Incredibly difficult to upload and keyword, the most confusing interface I have encountered, refunds that I cannot fathom. They do not make dealing with them easy! I have some photos there and have made a small amount of money and would likely upload more ... if they just made the process easier.

No sales but I am still uploading. These guys are straight shooters and have done everything right. I'm really hoping they make it work.

same problem

Try to use Greasemonkey.

Does the script still work? Can you select individual files or does it delete whatever is on the page?

Just slap me in the head. I see the manage file option has moved.
