And to assume that it is a rejection bruise you do not know me at all and I see no reason for your extremely unprofessional attack on my work.

But when you are done preaching you let me know maybe we can talk. I think it might be you who is bruised by my initial comment


Well Gordo I am sorry if you felt attacked but perhaps before tossing that word around you should take a quick glance in the mirror. My comments to you about the quality of some of your work was based on personal observation of the full size files not thumbnails. So while you may consider them an attack they are actually based on first hand experience with your work

Anywise to draw this out on the forum of another site in the same industry is as unprofessional as anything you could have done. If you would like to discuss anything I am open to talking with you. If you want feel free to visit my .com site by clicking on my name and you can email me from there.

In all honesty this is still a small industry that is very much in its infancy and experiencing growth at rates that are phenomenal industry wide. That said it is also a very small and as of the moment very tightly knit industry. I speak from personal experience when I tell you that this industry is still to small to be burning bridges. There is money to be made out there licensing RF images but starting bashing threads like this only hurts you.

Amen,

I must mention another site that I have paid to put photos on. I am banned from talking and they even bounce my E Mails, what is my major crime.
I asked them when are they going to pay me for my sales? To think I am a
paying customer. I cannot believe any company would treat a customer this way. Oh by the way they are in the good old USA, so much for free speach.

I was wondering if anyone knows of a trading standards organisation in the
USA because I would like to get paid for my sales.

Thats why SS is my number one agency because they allow good old fashioned free speach and I think that is something.

There is no downside to leaving images on multiple sites.

My view at the moment is, anyone who sets up a service to give me FREE access to sell my photo's deserve support & gratutude. If the business model is not working to your liking, stick around & input suggestions to shape it's future. We owe that much.
