Here's my little story.

A year and a half ago I'd uploaded 500 illustrations to Alamy. After a year I decided that after 20 squillion views and no sales, illustrations were obviously not their thing (despite being told by them again and again that it was photography based - sometimes I don't listen).

So, in frantic haste I deleted ALL my images except one - to see what would happen.

Well, it sold for £133 (DOUBLE that for u Americans) - I was swooning for weeks.

Moral of the story - I'm gonna start uploading again but be really careful about what I upload. They come across as an agency that sells kind of quirky different things - all my stuff was accepted first time round.

The guilt of all those reviewers reviewing the 500 illustrations still makes me blush!
