Isnt that considered to be use of the image on a website?
That's not true. Some agencies (Panthermedia, Clipdealer, YAY) offer special "social media licences".

Microstock Services / Re: Picworkflow?
« on: July 02, 2013, 15:34 »
Is this a service worth using? How does it work? Pros? Cons? Costs? I have seen a mention of a penny per image uploaded but confused as usual  :-\

Yes, absolutly! Picworkflow helps to save time and the service ist very easy to use.

General Stock Discussion / Re: Earnings in June
« on: July 01, 2013, 04:40 »
Shutterstock: steady in my case
DT: up and down as always
Fotolia: worst month since 2011


unexpected, Zoonar: very good month!

The 33 cent with Shutterstock make sense if you have a high number of sales. Subscription prices, however, are meaningless if you only sold a few images.

Newbie Discussion / Re: Tips on generating ideas for stock
« on: June 04, 2013, 05:15 »
An easy way to get inspired is to look at the most popular images in different agencies. You should not copy particular images, but search for ideas there.

The social media license is connected to the EL. This means that you must explicitly disable the EL, if you don't want to see your pictures on Facebook. Unbelievable, really! How many photographers will not even notice that? Who reads reads every incoming mail from agencies? The default setting is on, that means you must explicitly opt out the EL! In the (german) Forum on Panthermedia many contributors are very upset. Are this already bad news already, it comes worse. The revenues for the smaller subs will be reduced too. >:(

@  luissantos84: Yes, youre right! Haven't seen this posting. That's very kind and generous of Bob.

Here is another source: http://www.svt.se/nyheter/sverige/ny-lag-kan-forbjuda-smygfotografering  The law is primarily directed ainst pictures (and filming) of people, if the persons were captured in secret. It is hard criticizes from representatives of photographers and media organizations. rde-orm

If I had a $3000+ camera I would probably use the filters less. But I don't, so I do.

This is not a question of camera but primarily a question of  lenses. And like Yuri Arcurs said once: "It's all about around the camera". I often use NIK filters.  I think, NIK filters are the best on the market. You can use these filters perfectly selective and save a lot of time.

rde-orm, can you provide your contributor name exactly as it listed with your agency and we will try to expedite for you?  Although we are not sure whether you are asking us to add your copyright info or delete your images, so please specify.  We would love to represent your images on our site.

Of course, I will write you an email. So long I can't see any change on Zoomy Images I would prefer to see my images removed. Best regards, rde-orm

Ok, I got responses from Zoomy Images and YAY Micro. Guess what! Zoomy Images wrote that I should contact YAY Micro. YAY Micro-wrote, they will contact Zoomy images. And in the future Zoomy will solve the copyright problem. But what if all the informations are gone? Look at fotorobs test purchase. And my pictures are still online at Zoomy images. Without metadata, copyright status, without information about anything!

We have noticed a gap in the marketplace in terms of pricing structures,
Quote
We offer standard pricing, meaning every image in a collection is priced the same.  Most competitors have fluctuating prices, tricky teaser pricing, or the need to buy credit packs.

The gap was found earlier, for ex. by agencies like Zoonar or even Pitopia in Germany. Simple price structure, but up to 60 % (Zoonar) revenues for contributors! So what's new !? Just the idea of ​​offering Photos, without naming the authors, is simply completely wrong, it is neither professional nor serious. As long as this does not change, you havn't my sympathy for your newly founded agency. I repeat - I haven't enabled Zoomy Images as Partner on YAY. I wrote them a mail about this problem. But my Images ar on your site (I wrote you a mail too some hours ago) and therefore I ask you here once again: will you remove my images from your site as soon as possible or not? Best regards, rde-orm

I wrote them an email: Hello, I'm  from Germany and I'm actually not a Zoomy Images contributor. But today I saw a couple of my images on the Zoomy Images site without a reference to me as copyright holder. Therefore I declare that I do not agree with that. Either my images offers with copyright notice, or I require the removal of my photos.  Here are some examples of my work on Zoomy Images:RF0091523,RF0534873,RF0091515
Best regards

The same here! Lots of my pictures on Zoomy Images with no no reference to the owner!  >:( In my eyes, this is not a good introduction of a new agency! I think time to test for a test purchase order. We'll see if any revenues arrive. rde-orm

I don't understand why do you need a PR. In every case you can shot from a public road for example. Give the Agency this information when you upload your pics, and they will accept your pictures.
