I think that's a good idea, being able to pay "royalties" so to speak, to stockers who really put in effort and ingenuity! it'd also probably ease the problem of assholes using but not crediting stock!

I think it would need some sort of quality control, i can imagine idiots thinking they can sell their myspace grain shots

Yes, with quality control like Shell said

I think it'd be fantastic, avoid the issue with having resources on dA and people paying via paypal and sending emails and

good point there. Like maybe how you can chose to sell art as a print, if it meets size regs and quality then you'd be able to set it up for "buying", and if it's shite and graniy myspace poses they'd be rejected?

Sure, but it'd have to be done very much like Prints - only nothing is posted until a QA staff member checks it. Perhaps once someone is 'trusted' they can be left to submit, but I'd like to avoid goons posting any old junk hoping to make a few cents, which happens a lot with prints.

There are a lot of stock sites on the net, so this couldn't be done half-assed if it's going to be relevant - but it's a very exciting thought.

`radioPooh will be happy I remember he was always talking about having this done...

Thats exactly what im thinking

hurah! , cos if it's shite then nobody would want to actually buy it anyway lol! In a way i suppose it'd give proper credit and acknowledgement of the more SERIOUS stock artists really putting the work in and gradually cut out the one's who are just vain lol

hopefully!
I mean people already submit shite to prints, even tho it doesn't pass its not really pretty to see. But with actually selling stock there'd deffinatly need to be something in place otherwise people would try and make a buck of some crap or another and it would drag everything else down with it. Its something that needs to have set guidelines and rules set in motion before actually doing it.

No, if I had to buy resources I would either stop doing manips or simply get them elsewhere. Since I do not sell my manips as prints, i cant effort this.

Imagine we manipulators need a huge amount auf resources, from which the most we may never use.
I download gigabytes per week, just in case I could sometimes need exactly this pic, brush, tex etc.
