Bronze and Exclusive

Today I had my 250th DL at iStockPhoto. This means I have become a Bronze level photographer and will be accepted as an iStock Exclusive contributor. That means an increase in royalties and a bunch of other benefits. I'm stoked!

What is iStockPhoto? Well basically iStockPhoto is an internet site where you can buy very high quality photos (or videos or illustrations) of just about anything for not very much. You can then use the photos in brochures or work presentations or booklets or school projects or you can just get them printed out at your local photography shop and hang them on your wall. It is Royalty Free (RF) which basically means once you have bought it you can use it over and over again. How much does it cost? Small pictures suitable for a brochure or booklet start at about $1.60 and from there they increase up to about $32 for an image you could print out at poster size. Think about it, you could download a photo as good as a Ken Duncan for $32 and get it printed out at poster size your local photography shop for $20 and get it framed! Or you could buy a Ken Duncan and pay $2000 for it.

Anyway, use this link if you are interested:

Then go over to the left and click on the "How to buy stock" link on the left and follow the instructions. If you buy some credits, I'll get paid a little bit too!
