Good news- I got my check from iStockPhoto. I guess it actually works, this sell-your-photo online scheme.

I’ve also joined Shutterstock (another stock photo site), uploaded a few pictures, and am already selling pictures there.

How else did you think I had the money for Michal’s new Ring???

iStockphoto: reached 100$…

A great moment in world’s history: I reached 100$ in my iStockPhoto account.

iStockPhoto is a place where photographers can upload their photos, and people buy them for a few dollars (depends on the resolution they want). You get paid for each purchase (which they term “download”). I have just over 300 downloads, mostly of two pictures: A beach in Costarica, and a cross in Budapest.
I joined iStockPhoto in November last year, and yesterday I reached 100$. Now I’m supposed to get a check, we’ll see how it goes.
