Hi,
This is a new stock site. Interesting thing is that they are having competition where one can win 20 pounds. Also I have sold one image in short time. This is for somebody who is interested in it.

Thanks for the note. I'll have to check it out. What sort of payment options do you guys have?

With only 3000 images online it hasn't hit that critical mass to make it worthwhile for most of use to submit images. I already submit to about 7 agencies and some of them are still a gamble.

I really wish I had more time to support younger agencies, however, because a lot of the successfull ones are really starting to tick me off

Nikon, what are some of the things the "successful agencies" are doing to you? I ask because I don't want to waste my time with them if there are others who treat photographers better.

Clapper,

When I wrote this is was most thinking of iStockPhoto. While the are the most successful agency, the amount of time and effort it requires to submit is not worth the income. I still make almost as much with them as Dreamstime or Fotolia, but they aren't worth the time anymore.

Most others are o.k. I wish Fotolia's site wasn't so slow, that would make me happier, but they are not near as picky as iStock.

Dreamstimes changes their prices to much. I don't always understand why. Sure we make more, but simple supply and demand says we'll sell less. I think I am balancing out a little tiny bit higher this time, we'll see...

Sorry about the grips, hope this answers your questions. If I were starting out now i would stick to Shutterstock, Dreamstime, Fotolia and BigStock. Support other sites if you think they are unique and may make it (I like Lucky Oliver).
