Galastock and LuckyOliver - the new microstock sites

In the past couple of months, a couple of new microstock sites have popped up: LuckyOliver and Galastock. I have now got my photos onto them and can report sales at both, though very slow. This is to be expected as they haven't started marketing yet.

LuckyOliver looks very slick and appears to be run my marketing people as they are trying to be unique to get market share. Galastock is more traditional. It will be interesting to see if they survive as the market seems pretty competitive.

My first Microstock photo payment

I received my first payment from shutterstock and bigstockphoto . I received payment by paypal and had it successfully transfered into my bank account. No fees were charged by shutterstock , bigstockphoto or paypal .

This was my main concern with doing this is that I would never see the money. i have enough for a payout at 2 other sites now so I will request some more money. This is actually starting to payoff.
