Her 'Menu' image ID 65754793 is now number 2 on the Top 50 Images Ever at SS, and will probably soon be #1. All the other images in the top 10 have been at SS more than twice as long, which would mean her image is selling more than twice as fast as the best micrstock photos and illustrations ever done.
This is an amazing accomplishment. It shows that microstock is still a great opportunity and there is no limit to what can be done by somone with creativity, talent, skill, and a copy of Illustrator. Personally, I am inspired by her achievement. |

Not me. I'm bitter, angry and envious of her considerable talent and skill. GRRRRRRR!!!!!
Seriously, though, awesome job. |

I'm with Bigldesign: bitter, twisted and muttering unkind things.
Congratulations Anja! Your stuff is fabulous!

Yes, just paste the number into the SS search box. Or look at the SS All Time Top 50. Her image is #2 (for the time being). |

I always get a feeling that Anja will dominate all top 50 (every single spot) one day later.
Nevertheless, congratulations :) |

It would be just my luck to have the 5,000,001 image. |

Aaaaaw, you're so cute! Thanks for posting that, Michael! :D
Yep, I actually had *a load* of good luck regarding this one. When I did it, there were already lots of "swirly" vectors online, but nothing, say, "classical" at all. It still was a real market niche to get bridged. :)
And sorry for not answering to this thread earlier - I've been out for quite some time. (Some projects other than stock going on.)
Aaaaand *also* my apologies for all mails and pm's not yet answered, guys! I'm back now and trying to catch up with everything I've missed. I'll get back to everyone within the next couple of days - promised! :)
Thanks again!
Anja |

Definitely "he" - it's Mr. John David Bigl III! :)
No need to be envious, tho. Talent's constantly being overestimated, really. |
