I think this is an interesting topic to disucss. Has anyone tried to seel images on images stock sites ? Interesting how much you can earn by posting images there.
This thread is about general or macro photography discussion. Feel free to talk as much as you want :).
I have won Photo Competitions and some Art Gallery in London, UK was suppose to send me a check but never did
I was very naive and not experienced at the time and I sent them the photo ... slap my head for being trusting ... don't know if they used the photo because I didn't know you at the time Jack to have you check on them
But the image will be published soon by the Federal Wildlife Service in the USA
in the next couple of weeks
Point to note for anyone selling get the money firstI was very naive and not experienced at the time and I sent them the photo ... slap my head for being trusting ... don't know if they used the photo because I didn't know you at the time Jack to have you check on them
I don't send my photos to anyone. I usually have my images uploaded on my website which has proction for dragging and copying them.
I uploaded and sold some photos on Shutterstock but that's absolutely senseless unless you're not a media art expert. Most customers are advertising companies which are looking for modern photos and not for nature / macro photos.
Further more they buy mostly huge download packages for 500 or more pictures for let's say 10$. I earned 0,25$ for one picture and I sold maybe one picture per month. And they don't transfer you the money until you've earned 100$!
I sold a picture for 20€ to a member of a mushroom group on FB. But that was all the last years.

I had some images to shutterstock, and same , I earned only 0,25 cents , which doesn't make anything. And since then, I don't believe in stock websites, you also have to pay so your images to appear on featured page. I heard about Getty, but never tried.
In my opinion if you can find someone buying your images directly then you lucky.
