just wondering?

Hi Adam Yes I took on a license about 3 months ago.Reg

Hi Reg,
Do you consider it to be a good move - seen a few on ebay, love the images, just not sure if it would be profitable due to the outlay.

As a side note - don't know how they get around the copyright!

Do you know how much (the outlay) is John? I emailed them earlier but not had anything back yet ........

I cannot remember of hand, I'm sure they'll reply soon.

i looked in to this few month ago and got price flyer emailed back to me (still have PDF buy to gib file to upload here)

Basically they charge you £99 per year for the license with a minimum of 2 years sign up policy just for the car pics,

pet pics extra £40 per year
music & film stuff extra £70

then the worst thing is you have to buy images credits to able to download printable images (this cost is on top of the license cost)

I don't understand why it's a 'worse thing' Matthew unless I'm missing something?

As far as I can see, you pay for a licence to be able to use 'their' images, and use credits as and when required to download a particular image .................. ah wait, email just come through

Yes - you pay for licence, then use credits to download images when required - but you can use low res items to display what's available. Once you have used a credit for an image you can then use that image on as many products as you wish - as long as you have a valid licence ............. doesn't seem like a bad deal to me?

My point is they have a vast range of images and to be able to offer them all would take quite a few credits i'm not sure how much credits cost our how many it takes to buy an image

Can you just but a licence for music - or it have to be as an add on?

I think the pets and other stuff is an 'add on' to the basic licence (if I've speed read the info right) ...
