I gave in. I’m now an official stock photographer. Currently you can find a mere 9 images of mine for sale at Shutterstock.com When I figure out how to link directly to my gallery I’ll let you know. I’ve had an extremely busy day but before I sign off I want to say thanks to Melissa King, a fellow but seasoned stock photographer, for showing me the ropes.
UPDATE:
You can now go directly to my gallery (beware, there are only 9 images in there right now). You can even search my name Charla to find my gallery. But I still have had NO luck finding my images using a keyword search. However, in my first 24 hours I have sold four. I just have no idea how anyone is finding them.
UPDATE #2:
I’m now up to 9 downloads the first day. I didn’t think I would get one. This is really exciting and I’m starting to think everyone should do it. Then again, if everyone did ‘they’ would buy less of mine.
UPDATE #3:
10 is the number of the evening. It’s now been 24 hrs.

Comment by Robert May 16, 2008 @ 10:36 amGlad to help you out Charla! You will be selling like crazy in no time…as long as you keep uploading!
Comment by Melissa May 16, 2008 @ 11:19 amI’m not exactly sure. I’ve done a million keyword searches already and nothing was found. But the good news is, two have already been downloaded (making money in my sleep ;)! My gallery is not up yet (don’t know why) but when it is I will be able to link directly to all my images. I’ll be sure to update. I gotta go get more images to sell now.
