Those all look correct from the most recent list that I have. Although I have to admit I haven't sent much to most in the last year or so. Up north of the border the only one I ever seem to get much joy out of for pro sports is the Scottish Sun.

Although I did used to know the guy at the Guardian desk which helped out massively for a couple of years.

Slightly off topic but this seems like a good thread to ask the question in. When you are sending a picture(s) to a number of outlets, do you simply bcc them all in the same email? Secondly do you write much in the body of the email or simply state there are images attached for the consideration (I am assuming all the details are contained in the metadata of the file)

Many thanks in advance as always.

yes one email to everyone or you would eb there all day :)

All the details such as where pic taken, who is in the pic and what is happening... plus all the photogrpahers contact details plus bank codes for auto payment are in the meta iptc fields ... however a couple of papers like to have info in the email so I just add it anyay.. just copy the main part of the caption with the event details in..

PS I don't speak for everyone and certainly dont offer anything i post as fact.. but this is how I do it and most others i know and we get published so it works... others may have a different and maybe better way.. i dunno :)

Thanks so much for the reply, that's very helpful.
 
There isnt a set rate between papers... like 4x5 inch pic isn't paid at X rate by everyone....it varies

to be honest the paper i get published in most is the Sun because theres only really them that do league two.. and there doesnt seem to be any set rule on how they pay.. you get one price one week and another next month... all a bit wierd...
