Hello,
does someone knows what that is and if its a "official" partner of SS?
http://www.flower-pics.com/
(I am pretty sure that you will find your pictures there too - even if your work is not about flowers)

And yes .... i realized that they just link ....and in the footer its sayed :
" Images and data by Shutterstock"
So there must be a kind of API / Partnerprogramm established by Shutterstock and i want to know how many "Partners" there are.

I am not willing to let other people decide where my work is published and not even get informed that it is publsihed somewhere else.
This at least is unethic and unprofessional (if not even more)

regards axel

Hi Ron
i dont worry about royalties / split in these cases.
Dont you care about in what eventualy dubious / dogdy / shady environments your name or your work might show up??
We do!
At least i want to know where my work shows up or if their partners are OK.
Since that whole business turns more and more into something very dubiuos i dont believe / trust anymore kind words except my own.



And thats why i want to know from shutterstock who else they let be their "partners".
(sorry for my bad grammar)

This site, like many, many others connects through the API. There's no opt out.
