Title: New Opportunity Now Live on Photos.com
Post by: le_cyclope on October 22, 2008, 17:48
Just received this mail few minutes ago:

Well it's been 2 months since Photos.com Plus launched and we just wanted to share a few highlights.

StockXpert contributor royalties have increased by 11% since the launch.
StockXpert images now represent over half of all Photos.com Plus subscription downloads.
StockXpert images now represent 31% of all single image purchases on Photos.com.
We also wanted to let you know about another great opportunity that is now available. Photos.com now has pay-per-download on all photos and illustrations available on the site. This combination brings all the fresh, stylized, relevant community generated content to millions of image buyers with the choice, flexibility and price options that do not exist anywhere today.

What does this mean for you? Another opportunity to earn on Photos.com for your images uploaded on Stockxpert. You will receive a 30% commission for all pay-per-download transactions.

The new pricing options are:
$5 - multimedia
$10 - medium
$25 - high

The following remain unchanged:
$50 - super
$50 - eps
$70 - ultra
$100 - extended license

The sales will show on your balance sheet just like the current pay-per-download sales for super/ultra/eps purchases. You'll notice these prices are higher than the pay-per-download price on Stockxpert which should equate to increased royalties and start setting new standards for community generated content so we can illustrate the increasing value of your work.

For those contributors opted-in to both Subscriptions and Extended License, your images are available on Photos.com and there is nothing more you need to do. Remember we do update Photos.com every week so if you haven't opted-in to both Subscriptions and Extended License you may do so at any time.

As always, please feel free to contact us with any questions or comments. Thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,
The Stockxpert Team


So I think I will now opt in...

That seem to be a good news, unless there's something tricky... But what liscence do they get this time?

Since they are not paying contributors, the % being offered is pretty much moot.  ;)

Haha, I agree. It does not matter if they "not paying" me 30% or 50%
