Hi Marc,
Here is my wishlist for a stock library:
- Online sign up, online contract and online uploads
- No formal portfolio review (let photographers upload any image,
accept/reject images that you like/dislike, discard images that are
poorly scanned or not meeting your technical standards)
- Ability to edit image info online
- View sales in real time (like Alamy)
All stock libraries should look into the workflow used at the
microstocks. I personnally think this is the way it should be done in
this Internet age.
Best of luck with your plans!
