Very interesting site, looks like they put a lot of thought into it. Nice to see a site that cares more for quality than quantity. I especially like the commission split, and how friendly they are to their subscribers. I will keep an eye on this one.

FeaturePics, do you analyze price requests?
It will help authors to manage image prices.

I've never heard about this place before. It's odd though - yesterday I got an email from them requesting a link exchange with my person website. Of course I visited the site to see - right now in the process of uploading 5 images, but after that's done I'll email them and ask a few more questions.

Nice thing about our system, is that you can set your own prices, and if they don't work, you can change them. In the future we are planning to give our Authors basic statistics in pricing levels and how they are working with different types of images. We are currently gathering this information, and will start to send it out as we acquire adequate information.

Sorry, Forgot to register. Elena, Featurepics.com

And they responded to my email very quickly too with a very nice reply. Review time wasn't all that long either - they were reviewed and posted today.

Very nice so far - they give you a page that shows how many 'clicks' each image gets and how many downloads (okay, don't get excited, none yet with only 5 pics, lol).

They also have the ability to handle your RM images and collectible images - not all sites will handle both RM and RF.

Hey Gracey, thank you very much for your review of FeaturePics. We will continue to work hard to deliver results and establish an excellent market place for our Authors. We are proud to be noticed by accomplished Photographers such as yourself.

Thanks, we try. We are constantly ready to accept high quality photos. We are improving our categorization system so that no good images will be lost. Stay tuned!!!
