Yup...same here! LOL Only one of my original three made it past the inspectors, and wouldn't you know? In the year it's been up there, it still has yet to sell.

Ever since I got involved with microstock, I've read a ton of complaints about iStock and their quote unquote "ridiculous rejections," but the truth is that their inspectors are probably the best in the business. My all-time best selling photo series was accepted by iStock right out of the gates, while it was rejected three times by their biggest competitor before being accepted. Their acceptance gave me the courage to really stretch myself as a photographer, and I am a much better photographer today because of iStock. That right there has been more than worth the price of admission. :-)
