exactly so its to their benefit to cut out the crap somehow. But then again, all of the wannabees are contributing to the site traffic, sending their relatives to their gallery.

I got out of the DT exclusive because they wanted full control over EVERYTHING. You couldn't even sell on PODs.

Quality control is basically boosting selling images in the search. Theory is - if it sold before it must be good quality.
Other sites like Society6 and 500px use voting. On FAA at some point the people with crummy images figured this out and created voting groups, so now voting doesn't goose up the images.
Just having a large image size requirement would get rid of a lot of point and shoot crap.
He runs the model as if more contributors is better. maybe most of the profit is in people buying their own images.

Different than business cycles when departments get new budgets to work with in the beginning of the year.

Depends how they voted I suppose.

Its surprising that someone in say - Germany - hasn't approached FAA to be their partner with FINEARTGERMANY.COM or any of the other domains they have.

What are you buying with your commission money?

pictureframe.com already has this set up. Anyone can utilize their reseller program for $100 a year. They handle all the back end. Once you start getting complicated it doesn't work.

"an elite collection of fine art photography from a select group of photographic artists"
That's a mouthful!

Sorry to hear - Maybe time to discover something new - like tabletop or food?

Gunter - relax. A real maverick doesn't care what naysayers think. A brilliant idea has been conceived, built and will launch on schedule.

It would have been easy enough to invite a group of power sellers in for a weekend conference and hash out all of the issues. And then perhaps attend a few industry gatherings to learn how the business works.

Weird thing about 500 Prime is the titles - the photos have cutesy "art" titles like "Puss'n Boots" on a picture of a cat.
I don't get Sean's panicky thoughts that he doesn't want to become the next Circuit City. 500px seemed like they have been scrambling to find a business model. Doesn't FAA have a business model that is working?

The thinking seems to be that offering unlimited options is some how a good business strategy.

Someone needs to call Harvard Business School and let them know that their services are no longer needed!

If someone wants to license my artwork, I can be reached by email.

So many businesses failed in the dot.com era because people thought all it took to run a business is to have a bunch of programmers write code.

I'll just put something in my info - "if you are interested in licensing, contact me". Cuts out the middleman.

Once the code is done. That's that. Time to launch.

LesPalenik - its not 10 years ago or whatever then the market wasn't established. This is a late entry move into an established market with big players with well honed business practices.
