You mean alternate submitters?

If you don't mind that I'm keeping 100% you can upload to my agency ... come on, it's not a such big difference to that what some of the big players do

Okay, seriously now: I don't think that any of the 106 is accepting contributors work ... but you can easily join Symbiostock by creating your own site.

Okay, I'll give you 1%, but after some months I will cut it down to 0,5%

I'm wondering about any possible implications of representing other contributors on one of the Symbiostock sites. Technically, that would qualify as an agency.
Could some of the main microstock sites (SS, IS, DT, FT) use it to as a reason to terminate your account? (the SYM host's account with them, not the additional contributors accounts)?

Dan would know, he managed Warm Pictures and was a contributor

Unless you have a exclusive agreement with them I doubt you would get removed. I do know I have gotten sales from the Symbiostock site on some of the agencies. Right after someone viewed photos they were purchased at a angency.

I realize that having a Symbiostock site for selling your own image is not an issue.
However, I was wondering about a possible "conflict of interest" problems with your other agencies when you decide to run a "small agency, accepting and promoting images from other contributors (same scenario as Dan did with his Warmpictures site).
