Today, I’d like to continue discussing the pros and cons of purchasing images from stock photo agencies, as well as explore the different sales models that can help buyers choose the right microstock for their needs.

Many designers often face a shortage of quality photos and illustrations in their work. A decade or so ago, this was a significant challenge.

First, let’s define what a Model Release form is.

Today, I’d like to introduce Yuri Arcurs to those who may not be familiar with him. Danish photographer Yuri Arcurs, also known as Logos, is a prominent figure in stock photography and microstock.

If you’re earning or planning to earn from microstock agencies, you might be wondering who buys stock photos from them.

I believe newcomers also have the same question. Honestly, many are likely curious about who pays for the work of microstock authors.

After all the anticipation, it has finally happened. The free bonus program at DP (Depositphotos) has ended. The stock bank Depositphotos officially discontinued its program to incentivize stock photographers on April 1, 2010.

Why did this happen?
