iStockphoto news

istock.gifIt seems that next days on iStockphoto will be hot. Few hours ago, they announced few news and if you’re an iStock exclusive Gold contributor, this August and September will be right time for more action on iStock. Unfortunately almost all published news are for exclusive photographers :(

100% Royalties day

What do you think about unlimited upload on iStock? Well they decided to do something about this. Get those models and props ready because iStock will have an unlimited image upload weekend for all exclusive contributors on Aug. 18 and 19, 2007. If that’s not incentive enough to become exclusive, on a secret date within the next two months, all exclusives will get 100% of their sales revenue for the day.

Steel Cage Royale

Tape up your fists and climb into the ring, you Cage-crazed masses. The second anniversary of the Steel Cage is coming up on August 8th, and we’re celebrating with violence and loot. We’re holding a Battle Royale and you’re invited. If you’ve got the chops, nerve, and iron jaw to stay standing through the relentless barrage we’ve got planned, you can win big.
There’s $5,000 in the bank for this year’s tournament winner. Second and third place will get truckloads of swag (and whatever’s in Bitter’s top drawer) for their efforts.

Punctum day

From the time the clock radio goes off until we finally switch off the late night news and haul ourselves back to bed, everyone in the world swims in symbols, signs, and icons. We’re all quite literally looking at pictures all day long.
Of course, some of us are more involved than others with this world of pictures. Some of us make our living creating, selling and discussing images. The world needs to be represented and we’re here to do it – distilling the global stock of ideas into something visual, something people will understand. It’s a living and we’re good at it.
