Hello everyone!
I create vector illustrations on the computer. Not long ago, I discovered micropayment photo banks (stock photo sites) online. I found out that these platforms – commonly known as microstocks – offer a great way to sell vector illustrations, as well as photos, 3D images, and videos.

This platform provides the foundational experience necessary for success in microstock photography. The first step on the DT will be registration.
