    Redundant and way over-priced - I don't think the suppliers or buyers who have built the the microstock industry will fall for this backwards step - and the lack of original features in this community should not be rewarded. From a quality & copywright compliance perspective; they already display images that wouldn't pass istockphoto's high standards - no-one who knows image buisness would fall for this site.

    Fascinating to see how the prices have dropped on this one over the past year... now just $6 an image not $35 as it was back in 2006 (converted from GBP to dollars). The microstock market is fairly saturated, but there is still a place for someone with some innovative new ideas and advertising budget to gain some market share, sadly most of these new start-ups don't have much new to offer.
