Title: 10 free photos from YAY
Post by: gaja on July 08, 2010, 08:34
Yay has a campain now, where you can download 10 pics for free if you register in July via this link: http://yaymicro.com/register.action?extraMiniPack=true&la=en (http://yaymicro.com/register.action?extraMiniPack=true&la=en)

If you are already registered at YAY, and want the same offer, send an email to [email protected]

My username there is kavring, if you want to give me referrals.

Why would I basically want to rob artists of income? Are the artists being compensated for the free DLs?

It would be nice to get the official word from YAY but I am pretty sure the artists are getting paid for the downloads... i would hope so anyhow.

I am sure they will pay us, should be easy to test, just download one of my photos and mention it here and I will let you know if I get paid :)

I asked, and got this answer:
Fotografene får selvsagt betalt som om kundene har kjøpt bildepakkene.
God sommer!
Med vennlig hilsen,
Linda L. Johannesen

Translation:
The photographers will of course be paid the same as if the customers had paid for the pictures.
Have a good summer, Best regards, Linda L. Johannessen

And I can confirm that I received 1 euro for a download, well done yay, I hope this brings in more buyers.  Had a few 1 euro commissions lately, so it looks like they are from this promotion.

I doubt there will be an official word from Yay on photographer forums. They don't want us to download 10 images one from another just to boost our earnings.
Do they obligate you to buy some package before you download those 10 images, or you can just download them after registering without paying anything to Yay?

Well the official word from Linda via gaja is sufficient for me.

hi i can't find any information from the yaymicro homepage?

would like to understand more about it, is it a deal to attract buyers or contributors? since i don't buy it, maybe i can register and upload my own picture and buy it myself?

Hi all, anyone knows how to download 10 images for free?

I just registered through the link, and uploaded some pictures that is still under pending.

I can't really see anything about that i can download 10 images for free..

I may just download my own images if i don't see any images i need...at least i got 10 sales to start?

here is my referal link if you are interested.

uploading is quite fast, it reads IPTC data from zipped vector with preview jpg too.

Surely they wont pay us to download our own images?  That wouldn't be a wise use of their marketing money.  I presume they are trying to attract real buyers, why don't we just let them do that?

I got this when I wrote to them, I was hoping to use some images for my blog.  ;)

Hi Komar!

Currently this is a trial offer to Norwegian customers only. Later
this year we'll consider expanding it internationally.

Thanks,

Linds

Strange that the sign-ip page was in English as well as Norwegian, then. Sorry for misleading you guys, but hope that those of us who have pics there will get some sales from the campain.
