I've change my strategy a bit. I was trying to increase it to 800 a month but I decided to try and do 400 useful photos that will sell instead of killing myself trying to do 800.

I'm full time stock now. When I wasn't I was doing 200 to 250 a month and I had a more than 50hr a week job. I really pushed myself for a year because I didn't want to continue to work for someone else. I'ts still hard for me to believe that it's all working out.
I'm in the same boat now my friend. I shoot for 25 new uploads a day, for weekdays. It hasn't seemed to happen just yet. I end up uploading about closer to 70-100 new images a week, which still isn't bad. If I can do at least 300-400 per month, I'll be happy. Like you said - it's not just quantity, but also quality. I do end up working very long days, however...the days are just more dragged out. Some days I'll end up working 12-14 hours. But hey, I'm home....working for myself, I can take breaks whenever I want, and I get to hang out with my dog Hurley It beats working for idiots any day.
