Thanks for sharing! I don't quite know what it a "stock" photography is - and what does "Dreamstime do with the photo?" Pardon my ignorance! :D

Re: My First Stock Photo
Thanks Oz and Liz. They sell the photos as downloads to subscribers for use commercially. I get 10% of the sale plus a small cash commisssion (at least thats what I understand). It could amount to about $30 per sale.

Re: My First Stock Photo
I am corrected by someone in my local club:
Oh ya you have it wrong. That $350 is for the extended use license and means you sell all the rights to one signle buyer - meaning that one person will be buying it for exclusive use. You'll see that the other prices are much much much lower. Your prices that you'll likely be dealing with are all those ones that range from $0.20 to $6.64 (assuming the image gets 100 downloads) and you only get 50% of the price meaning you're only getting $0.10 to $3.32. And as a typical micro stock site you won't see the money till your account hits $100.
