I made my 50th sale with SS today! I've only been doing this for just over 4 months so im delighted.. No idea if 50 is good or bad for that amount of time, but I am very happy so far
I've sold 128 files in 2 months time and I've a port of 450 images only. I think I need at least 3k images to get 200 or 300$ every month... What do you think?
Lol that's one of biggest fears! I'll get a barrage of criticism, not sure I'm strong enough for that yet hahaBut here you go anyway.... http://www.shutterstock.com/g/David+Hewison?rid=3399407

What do you think?I think you're trying to make Alfa feel bad about the accomplishment he's currently very proud of.
Congrats!!!I also started in October and also with editorials and also with 200 images. Are you only in SS? I started at SS, IS, DT and Alamy at the same time and so far SS is outperforming all the others

Anything interesting to shoot around your place?
And it worked

Stocky me has about double the files with slighty more than double the sales.. so we're both doing OK
