Hi,
I am working on a service, that currently is mostly for my own use (I am both a programmer and a photographer).
I'd like to know, if people (you) will use it, free of charge, or for a REALLY small flat fee. If the answer to this little poll is mostly "yes", I'll make it public, and - during at least one year - free.
Description:
1. You have your own web site, hosted elsewhere. You have photos on it, including thumbnails. NOTE: unlike in foto agencies, we do not keep your images, they remain on your site.
2. You register the site with my service. It has a bulk submission system, so all your images (thumbnails), with all meta information, keywords, price and of course, URL of your site is added to our database.
3. The public part of our site works as a searchable database, just like in any stock photo agency. The visitor finds images he likes, and after he clicks, he is being taken to your site (to an image-specific page, if you choose so).
So, please vote, if you need it public.
Comments on that service are also appreciated.
Addition 12-Sep-2007:
The service is now public, and free: photodir.snowcron.com
An example of use (a simple example) is at photo.snowcron.com
Please feel free to try and tell me impressions / suggestions.
