Does anyone know a site that you could sell your photographs on as Prints or Stockphotography? I have been working on some images and would like to market them now.

I sell my photos online both as prints and as stock.
If you're interested in selling stock, I have a lot of links on my website http://www.lindsaydean.com/sellstock.html
If you're interested in selling prints, some good sites are:
http://www.cafepress.com
http://www.zazzle.com
http://www.redbubble.com
http://www.deviantart.com

I haven't had any sales yet, but I haven't really been to active there. I have a friend who is very active on Red Bubble and submits a lot of photos, and he's had a TON of sales!

I've joined Alamy, photographer's direct but haven't made any earnings since. The competition is tight. But if you're up for the smaller earnings but sells well, try the micro stocks like dreamstime, shutterstock, fotolia etc.

I'm on Alamy.. I've seen sales, but it takes a pretty long time to start seeing a regular stream of sales according to the long-term contributers.
They key to seeing sales on any stock agency is to submit images that are technically sound, commercially valuable, and unique. If there are 100 shots of something, and you also have a shot of the same thing, you're probably not going to see any sales if that image isn't in the top 10 of that particular set.
