About Stockfuel
StockFuel is a company created by creative individuals involved in web design, motion, videography and audio production. StockFuel is a stock site for all creatives to find professional, affordable stock for their projects.

As a user of other creative stock sites, we noticed that, although containing some great work, the sites were often cluttered with sub standard products or many products that were very similar to each other. From this, we decided to create the stockfuel.com site to accomodate only top quality, original products.

StockFuel has the ambition to become the most used and respected creative stock site online. We look to do this by reviewing every product that is uploaded to our system and sticking to a rigorous screening system. If the product is not to our high standards or we already have similar products online, it wont be added... even if this means having a smaller amount of products than our competitors. Some sites pride themselves on having milllions of files, we pride ourselves on having quality files, regardless of the number.

For the team here at StockFuel, alot of our creativity and inspiration comes from the world we live in. We travel to many parts of the world looking for the perfect video, image or sound.

About ClipartOf
ClipartOf is a stock image library offering royalty-free (rf) stock illustrations and clipart from professional illustrators and cartoonists around the world. All of our images are available as posters and art prints as well as digital downloads. Digital files are available to download immediately after purchasing. We also offer free image hosting, and clipart illustration collections.

A unique thing about ClipartOf.com is that we have ONE simple license. Yes, that's correct, ONE End User License Agreement. Without tricky "extended" or special licenses, we make your job easier! You can pretty much use our images for anything as long as you are not distributing them, giving them away for free or for charge (like what we do), using them for logo/design competitions to win money, offering them on on-demand product sites, or trademarking or copyrighting them. Other sites have so many different licenses and rules. We have ONE license and one set of rules.

After years of witnessing artists being bullied by agencies, and at the begging of artists themselves, we decided to start a business that's ABOUT supporting the artists, not about making a quick buck at the artist's expense. We aren't about lowballing our artists and paying them a measly half a cent for each download, outsourcing jobs to save money, degrading artists by treating them like they are vermin. We are here because the artists ASKED us to be, and we take this very seriously. We let the artist pick their own pricing so they make what they need to, rather than TELL them what they will make, such as other sites do.

Unlike many of our competitors, you will also notice that we provide credit to our artists, rather than to make it look like we own all of the images ourselves. This industry has been taken over by greed, theft and immoral business practices. We stand out because we run ClipartOf quite differently. Take a stand with us! Help support our artists and a moral business.

At ClipartOf.com you are getting images direct from the artists and helping support an industry of pure talent.

About Tandem
Tandem stills + motion is a fresh, new stock photography and HD video clip licensing company specializing in the recent convergence of stills and motion. Tandem is a streamlined, modern company with a solid foundation built specifically to address the challenges facing today's image makers in our changing economy. A division of the successful production company, Wild Collective LLC, Tandem has built, from the ground up, a new, state-of-the-art software that will allow art buyers to search through cutting-edge imagery faster and more efficiently than almost any other stock licensing company.

Tandem's business philosophy begins with the creators of our content - the world's best photographers and filmmakers. We believe that a company cannot stand on it's own without the valuable contributions made by these creative individuals. To this end, Tandem not only offers above-average royalty payments to its contributors, but also offers a unique and unprecedented profit-sharing model. Much like a cooperative, we believe that the more you put in to the company, the more you should get out. Therefore, at the end of every year, we cut bonus checks from our profits to each contributor who puts their hard-earned creative works into our archive.

About PhoneStockfoto
PhoneStockfoto is dedicated to giving a place on the Internet for all the great Cameraphone and Point-N-Shoot photos of the world to be sold. We feel there is a lot of fantastic work that is under appreciated and actually has a valuable function in the world. Using many years of experience as consumers of stock photography and being photographers ourselves, has given us valuable insight into what is useful as stock photography. We believe a picture is more important than the equipment it's created with. We are collecting beautiful useful images for the world to see and use.

A word from the CEO
There has never been a more exciting time than now to delve into the stock photo world of digital sales. Almost everyone in the world has a mobile phone with a camera. Every day millions of photos are taken which have stock image potential. Websites, advertising, digital magazines, books, commercials, news stories and more all need images. Who knows, you might have the perfect picture that someone is willing to pay for. Once a photographer has uploaded their images to Phonestockfoto.com the only work involved, for years to come, would be collecting your money.

About Zoonar
Zoonar offers new freedoms for photographers: fee payouts of up to 80%, extensive amount of self-control over prices, licences and the passing on of pictures, as well as the facility of linking your own website to pictures loaded onto the Zoonar platform - these are just a few of the services Zoonar offers.

Whether you're an amateur or a professional: with Zoonar, it's the quality of a picture that decides whether it gets accepted or not! The photographer can decide for each motive whether to price the picture at the "Microstock" level for graphic designers and PR, "Standard" for editors, or "Premium" for advertisers. All pictures can be purchased at any time of the day or night. Worldwide, on the spot!

About The3dStudio.com
The3dStudio.com is the oldest and largest 2D & 3D resource site on the Internet. Our collection of 3D models, stock photos / images, and textures for programs such as Autodesk 3ds max, Photoshop, Cinema 4D, Lightwave, Maya, and many others is vast and it is growing larger each day. We are your one-stop shop for all things related to 3D CGI, Stock Imagery, and all types of graphic design. Contributors who sell at The3dStudio.com make 60-70% of every sale.

A word from the President
The3dStudio.com is one of the largest and oldest companies on the Internet offering 3D and 2D resources, and we are proud to also be one of the most well-known and trusted names in the industry.

I started the company around 1996, which makes us about 82 in Internet years. I began by offering only free resources, but as time went on I received many requests from contributors who wanted an easy and affordable way to sell 3D products. So I decided to offer that option and turn The3dStudio.com into a full time business. When I incorporated the business in 2006 some of my family members joined the company.

We now offer both free and priced resources including 3D models, textures, and stock photos and images. Expert custom work is available. We are committed to offering the best customer service possible. We provide fast personal service via email seven days a week.

About Stockfresh
Stockfresh was founded by Peter Hamza and Andras Pfaff who brought several other sites to success over the years, including the widely known stock.xchng, which was launched in 2001 and had over 25 million pageviews per week in its peak. In the end of 2009, after working together with some of the biggest agencies we decided to go independent again and start something new and exciting from scratch along the values we believe in.

About Cutcaster
Cutcaster connects photographers with photo buyers, which includes anyone who wants to license user-generated content immediately and legally for a commercial, editorial or personal use over a real-time, dynamic licensing platform. Cutcaster bridges the gap between photo sharing sites like Flickr and traditional stock agencies like Getty. Photo contributors set their image’s price or use a pricing algorithm to help them find the correct market price. Photo buyers can purchase any file at the listed price or they can name their price, which a sellers can accept, reject or resubmit a new offer back to the buyer.

About YAY Micro
Yaymicro.com is a website for selling and buying affordable images.

Established in 2008, YAY quickly grew to be one of Scandinavia's largest image agencies, with 890 000 Royalty-Free images in March 2010. Over 5000 photographers contribute to the image base, earning a 50% commission on all sales.

High volume and low overhead makes it possible to sell the images at very low prices, typically 10% of traditional image prices. High-resolution images cost from $1.50 to $10. We offer both single-images and package deals.

The combination of variation, quality and low-price, together with a strong focus on usability, localization and simplicity has been a success at the market place. YAY are currently available in Norwegian, English and Chinese. The image search is available in all major languages.

A word from the CEO
At YAY Micro we’re passionate about photo, and creating a great user experience for photographers, visitors and image buyers. Everything at YAY is designed to be easy to use, from our search to our preview, checkout and price model.

About PantherMedia
Panthermedia.net is an online marketplace for royalty-free photography, bringing buyers and sellers together on a common platform divided into a photocommunity for photographers and a stock agency for art buyers..

The photocommunity serves as the creative heart of the image marketplace. Professional photographers and shutterbugs from all over the world can upload, rate and comment on images. They can share their experience, further develop their photographic skills and showcase their artistic potential.

After a legal and qualitative check through PantherMedia, image reviewers choose adequate images for the stock agency. Agencies, publishing houses and enterprises that need images can license images for their individual purposes - either as single images or through a flexible subscription plan.

The revenues will be shared with photographers. This novel business model allows through so-called „User Generated Content“, provided by over 40,000 photographers worldwide, to keep the offer of RF-images far below the average market price.

PanterMedia.net is an enterprise of PantherMedia GmbH with headquarters in Munich, Germany and was founded in October 2004. At present, PantherMedia offers more than 1.5 million images worldwide directly and via an international network of over 90 distribution partners in 40 countries. During the FounderChampions competition of the 25th German Days of Founders and Entrepreneurs PantherMedia represented the Federal State of Bavaria as the best Bavarian Start-up.

Company Extras
ClusterShot also offers a Pro Subscription for $20/year. When you purchase a pro subscription, you receive your own personal store. On your personal store, only your photos appear for sale. This way, you can ensure clients see only your photos. Your customers use ClusterShot's quick and easy checkout to pay for your photos. Other Pro Subscription features: Watermarking of photos - a personal store to show only your photos - custom domain names - account statistics

A word from the CEO
ClusterShot is just a website. It’s not a movement, a fad, or a social experiment. On ClusterShot, you can sell your photos or buy other people’s photos. It is kind of like that popular online auction site, but just for photos. ClusterShot is a free-for-all site that allows anyone to sell their photos and allows anyone to buy them. We don’t screen for image quality, focus, size, etc. You can post as many crappy photos of your dog as you like. Why wouldn’t you? Someone might buy one.

Cheers,
Dan
