Hall of Fame.
« : Ноября 29, 2007, 06:51:26 am »
Acting on Lev's advice I started the same topic in Russian section. Please brag about everything that makes you proud, big or small.

I know my small achievement will be lost in shadows of big names which have already showed up on this forum but at least I will go to the history as the topic starter.  :D

This is my third month on IS and the number on DLs finally exceeded the number of my files.  That makes me proud.

 Talya, Its a great feeling when you see your portfolio and your sales growing.

I bought  a car last month, totally paid for with my photography earnings. Not all microstock, but a good part of it was. That made me very proud and happy.  ;D

Talya, I am proud when I look at the images I first submitted to the microstock sites and I can see vast improvement in my new images.

Talya, what I am proud of is here With the help of a friend that talked and guided me through the procedure I managed to make some fractal footage, so far none of them has sold but that was not the reason I tried my hand on them, I just wanted to know if I could do it, this is my favourite, because that was the one I really felt I did on my own, SY:

What!!! A car??? It took us one year to finance a 70-200 2.8L out of microstock and people keep telling us we should be in the top 10.

Welcome Frenk and Danielle, glad you sorted your login problem out!
Yes, we told you so! Your portfolio is really amazing, how anybody with images like This! is not selling more is beyond me. Stay in this forum and I think people will happily exchange their "sales" tips for "photo" tips from you. SY

Sybille you are so right. They are stunning images.
DNF, I would love to spend a day just watching you work. I bet I would learn more in a day watching you than I would in a year on microstock.

DNF,  SS is easy to beat (your own record).  Because it depends so much on new uploads, if you did not upload a couple of week for some reason and then upload a big batch you will have it.

DNF, regarding your portraits, some of them are just stunning, but...

I'm not an expert, just my 2 cents. There are too much art, too much humor, too much drama for stock. I hope you know I mean. Try to be simple. Take a photo of a pretty girl in white shirt with headphones and welcoming expression and you will have it. With all your skills I have no doubt about it. Well, if you moral principles allow you  ;). I know people who will say "never ever" and I can understand why.

Again, this is just my very humble opinion.
