Have just sold my first photo through the stock agency I've been with for 2 years. I made £78, which isn't a lot, but it gave me a nice warm glow inside:thumbs:
Here's the photo in question;
DSC_3184.jpg

Nothing special at all, not even level:shrug:

Cheers Kev- I've drunk it all already. By the way, I've had a search around that junction 6 of the M40. There's some great landscape shots to be had. Fancy it sometime?:shrug:
 
Could do, there's plenty of space. Will put up a thread in meetings to gauge interest and will PM you.

Well done.
Shame about you lot going down.
 
Nice one. I'm nowhere near good enough to sell images yet, but I'll keep that link in case I ever start taking some decent pictures :D
 
Hey - well done !

I was looking at SocialStock the other day and was a bit confused with their wording - I know they ask for images on CD / DVD but wasn't clear about whether you could submit via upload ?
 
sorry to be really rude, and obtuse, but someone bought that image for £78? I am knocking out 9" x 5.5" for £20 a pop in a mount and frame.

What rights do they get for £78?
 
hmm they take 60% ?????????????

Not rude at all Lynton. The photos are sat on my hard drive doing nothing. I have uploaded shots that have been taken whilst out and about wandering with my camera,so no real effort was involved. That image sold for 2 uses, one is license for 3years web usage and the other is for an A4 print. I don't know where or who will be using it . That sale has meant the purchase of a 1.4 converter. :thumbs: Not a great amount, but I'm happy.

i was thinking about submitting to this site but this bit confused me

the image should be between 6-10 mb compressed how do I find out the compressed size of my image

i know its 36.4mb uncompressed I shoot jpegs at the highest setting on a canon 5d sorry if this is a silly question but it as stumped me
 
I must be going blind.....I cant even see HOW to submit.

Well done on the sale though :thumbs:
