Hi, Are you taking photographs that are of good quality and could poosible be sold? Well I have started uploading my photographs to a stock photography website (Istockphoto) and the money is rolling in...almost $50 in just over a month and it is still growing! Its really working! iStockphoto is the internet’s premier royalty-free stock photography community, where designers can search and download over 1,000,000 images, starting as low as a $1.00 each. Their international community of photographers and administrators work tirelessly to bring over 14,000 new images each week! They are extremely professional and the standard of photographs are extremely high, but once your pics have been approved you can be assured that they will sell.

How many of your photographs have been selected? Do they have to be unaltered or can they be modified slightly in Photoshop, etc? What is the average payout per photograph?

Hi I have about a 60% success rate. But this could be much better if you optimise each photo to the max. Yes you actually should optimise in photoshop, it helps getting the images accepted. I do a lot spot and duct removal, colour enhancement, curves adjustment etc.

I use Dreamstime and have made hardly anything. It really sucks. So Istockphoto is good. What kind of pictures of yours sell the best? Well I will definately check it out. Thanks.
