bah. I don't mind living in my tiny apartment.
I want a Tesla Roadster though *purrrrrrrr* |
Ok, that's a beauty, I must admit. :)
(Had to google it, because I didn't know, how a Tesla Roadster looks like. I'm kind of oldfashioned, I guess.*g)
I would keep my flat here at Munich, too. Love it. But there's nothing, what could compare to the sound of waves in front of your window and an Italian mountebanker offering their fresh fish! *daydreaming ...*
@Will: You will earn more than that for sure, if you keep submitting. :) |

and not only does it look awesome, it's ELECTRIC! No icky exhaust ever, no dirty parts, just an awesome, smooth ride.Obviously, I'm not old fashioned with my dream-car, hehe.
Seriously though, if I made that kind of money, I'd spent most of it traveling the world. I guess I'd have to do all my work on a laptop :-p |

Wow! I remember when my own expectations were that low - and even thought it to be very unrealistic. Just keep submitting illustrations like those in your gallery, and you will be able to pay for a lot more than just your diesel :)
Personally I love this business and the way things have turned out for me. You will not regret being a part of this community! |

oh crap. I realized I never actually answered the OP's question!
I generally upload images once a week, and try for 5-10 images.
And if I could get to $500 a month, I'd be a MAJOR step forward in making graphic design/illustration my main job. |

Good work needs time, eh? ;)
And btw, I don't think there's a limit for how much money you can make. Depends on many factors, but you could end up as a Yuri Arcurs earning some cool 1,3 millions a year. :) |
sigh ... i am slow but quality is also not so good :( |

Diversify. :)
A niche is a good thing and if you are the very best with a particular topic or style, it's fine to stick with it. But in all other cases it would be better to try different topics and styles. Works well for me at least. |

@ thomasamby & Anja - Thanks for the positive comments very kind of you.
This stock thing is really addictive, just wish I had a bit more time to submit stuff :) Had my first on-demand download yesterday - made me smile a lot!
Great community on here, everyone seems nice and helpful. |
