Hey all, I have a question on stock for ya. I sell currently on Micros, though I have never put up my best shots. This week I was accepted to Alamy, where I plan to put my best up. Now here is the question....IF I choose to go with an Exclusive License with them, would I be allowed to sell prints of this image at all? I am having a lotta trouble finding an answer to this anywhere. The licensing structure for them is here http://www.alamy.com/help/stock-photography-licensing.asp . Also for those of you that sell there, do you sell Exclusive, Traditional Licensed or RF??
Thanks for the help guys!
John

I would not consider selling my images exclusive (at least through Alamy). They only charge the customers 20-30% over the RM price, which seems like a terrible deal to me. I'd prefer 200-300% over to be a starting point. I only sell traditional licensed (rights managed).

Thank you Jack for responding, I seriously appreciate that. I think that is the way I am going to go, frees it up for other use then as well. Thanks!
