Yeah, it's weird - this one was up there a few weeks back, then they took it off. Now it's back again. Not my best work, either.

I did get my first image sale though - YAY!



Not bad, 5 Euros is about $8 USD. I like that. I just hope that I sell more than one a month.

I'll admit, the shot isn't the best technically...it was originally shot with a point and shoot, and needed a lot of noise removal. Afterwards the quality was slightly muddy. But hey; someone from who knows where just paid 5 Euros for it.

It passed YAY's standards. Most new sites accept 99.9% of submissions. I've noticed Snapvillage and Fotomind are very lenient as well.

Anyone else here see any sign of life over at YAY yet?

I still have a bunch of zeros over there but it is early days.

Lots of our photos are used on the internet and don't have to be technically perfect. Some people seem to like the realistic look. I think the sites should have a section for the photos that were rejected for technical reasons and let the buyers decide if the image is still usable.
