30c times zero is the same as 25c times zero is the same as 90c times zero.

I think the decline in sales is a much bigger issue than the price-per-sale.

I have to say I too am more concerned that SS has overlooked a huge market in not offering more affordable and flexible package pricing. More variation in available packages would open up this site to a whole new demographic while still retaining the current customer base. Sales would increase most definitely.

i think that price increase is good choice , as we know all sites are doing same , and the biggest competitor increased prices by about 40% this year.

this is better than putting prices down because of competition.
also dollar is very week , and this is one more reason for increasing prices.

maybe shutter should add per picture sale...

No, I am dead already because SS didn't give me raise. My brother is talking to lawyer right now to sue SS :D

I'm sure I read somewhere the rise was going to be postponed until 2009...
