2012 Charity Drive Kicks Off Monday

Ho, ho, ho, it’s the giving time of year.  Next week I’ll be kicking off my 2012 Charity Drive, based on my iStockphoto portfolio downloads.  By licensing work from my portfolio, you’ll be helping me donate money to three great causes.  Read on for more details…

Eyeballs are what makes the world go around.  Specifically, the more eyeballs you can get onto your work, the better chance you have of selling that work, especially when it comes to stock content, like the kind I have in my iStockphoto.com portfolio.  So, for the last several months I’ve been working on a new style portfolio display site.  It’s meant to give you, the buyer, an alternate method of looking through my work, and then purchasing said work.  For […]

Holiday 2012: Winter Time

First Time Sales Friday

I don’t know whether it is holiday season buyers looking for an undiscovered treasure, or the iStockphoto Best Match sort algorithm pushing new files up a bit, but I’ve had quite a few first sales of both new and old images this week.   Low downloaded images can help give your business a boost from uniqueness – at least for a while.  Here’s a look at some images that people are licensing for the first time.
