I guess looking back at last years increase maybe a more tiered approach to the payouts i.e. the more you earn the more you get (to encourage the top selling artist to stay rather than move onto macro sites).

I guess we will have to sit back and wait....fingers crossed

2.4bn...see if only we were a bit more orginised we could have raised that. I guess it was in dollars...with the exchange rate at the moment I think I could have found that amount down the back of my sofa.

Illustration / Re: Source of vector shapes: unanswered question

Source files are ok but I would say about 50% of my people drawings are drawn freehand without any source and I think it would be unfair to penalise Illustrators because they couldn't prove that they had not traced an image. Surly that would push people towards the coping/tracing a photo route and thus remove some of the skill from from your work. Also you could only produce set work with person in certain poses i.e. the poses of people that you have already photographed.

very nice topic,
i shoot a lot of photos for tracing lately, and i am building my people sil.s with these, but it is not very easy to do and i wonder how the other guys do 100's of people sil.s and send them in 1 go to SS :)
i think micro's should ask for the source file, if it is a drawing or digital render, they should ask the source files as istock does,
i am sure in the future they will, but i dont know how much will it take :S

I have be know in the past to pose infront of the mirror and snap away until I get the silhouette I like (we will keep that between us!) I then outline the image and adjust it to suit my needs. If I am really lucky I will talk my girlfriend (yes I have one!) or my daughter into posing for me.

I dont and have never been asked to upload a release for the image. I never use the original image for stock photography and most of them get chucked as they are not of any quality.

What music do you listen to when creating your master piece?

I will go first, White Stripes, Snow Patrol or a little Newton Faulkner for the mellower moments

« : Февраля 21, 2008, 02:53:20 pm »
123RF are a steady earner for me, I have tried offering free downloads (via the donate) and did see an increase in earnings but nothing like the 40% to 2800% claimed more like 10% to 15%

I have a new site to add to the list Zymmetrical I have been a member for only about 2 weeks and already the sales are starting to flow unlike Albumo which is very hit and miss or Fotomind still no sales!

General discussion / Re: most irrelevant keyword for your sale!
« : Февраля 14, 2008, 03:03:52 pm »
;)) The funny thing is that I'm pretty sure I don't have "baby" or "duck" keywords in my port at all;)

p.s.: Now I'm gonna go buy one of those Vegas ships so popular lately;))

I can do you a good deal on a "Vegas ship"....

I have just had a customer buy two of my images with the word "sketch"...which is not a word I use in an of my keywords and they bought a abstract background and a crowd scene from a concert!

Is Dreamstime on fire this month or is it just me...I am only a couple of dollars short of a BME already! (on the 14th) Roll on payday!
