Here is a tip for you guys who likes to check out new sites to sell your pictures!

Mostphotos.com

I posted this thread in the "new microstock" section but I guess this Swedish site is really somewhere in between micro and macro if you look at the price structure of the pictures.

Now you will probably think, why bother with another one?
Well, all I can tell you is that I have a good feeling about this one.
I am not affiliated with the owners in any way, but I have been there for some time now, giving tips on improvement in their forum and helped them bugtest some functions. The site was in Swedish to begin with, aimed at a Scandinavian market. (Im Swedish so thats why I joined them in the first place) I am however really impressed with the work they have done with the site in a short period of time, but even more importantly, the changes and new functions they have added are most a result of interaction with the contributors.
The people in charge are active in their forums and they really listen to the photographers requests.

The site has been in Beta for some time and in swedish until recently, but they have now started to translate the whole site into english and are just about ready to launch it aimed for a worldwide market. Some texts are not yet translated and most of the discussions in the forums are in Swedish but that will change in the days to come.

This is what they offer as of now:

1. FTP upload and automatic ITPC reading. They just released this function but it works really well as far as I can see. I would compare the "upload smoothness" similar to featurepics and SXP, which means it doesn't require a lot of effort. You just have to choose one category. Once you get the hang of their system it is quite fast to work with.

2. RF-pictures sells for 25 Euro and 50 % goes to the photographer. You can also sell pictures exclusive and set your own price.

3. The site has a kind of community based structure where fellow photographers can rate and comment on others photos. Based on comments and rating the pictures end up higher or lower in searches. Google loves content and it is fun to get comments on your work. =)

4. No review/quality control on uploaded pictures. Yes, you read correctly. None what so ever. I was very sceptical to this at first but I am starting to maybe change my mind about it. "Bad pictures" get low ratings anyway and end up last in searches. What I like about this policy is that the buyers can chose if a picture is right for them or not, It is not based on one reviewers taste. It remains to be seen if this is sucessful or not.

5. Referral program. You get 1 euro for every picture sold if you referred the photographer or the buyer.

6. I am not sure about Paypal/Moneyb. They have said they are working on it so I guess it shouldn't be too far away.

Feel free to use my referral link ;-)

So any updates on this site? I just realized I bookmarked it long ago but haven't heard anything of it at all since. Lousy performer?
