not much, but better than nothing: maybe things are starting to move on that site?

Thanks for this review – I signed up under your referral link after reading your comments.

I concur with others….the interface is superb. Let’s hope they can generate some sales when they launch…..

I registered two days ago and put 11 photos to revision and they went approved yesterday, so by now very fast. The aplication to upload the photos is clearly the best. Very very fast for uploading and editing.

Thanks for the recommendation. I have put a reference to this article in my blog (in Spanish)

Finally something looking really promising – simple, paying fair commision and paying in euros. I think this could be serious advantage as the dollar is heavily recessing and it makes serious hurt for many non-US contributors. Euro is also going slightly down but still much better.
The reviewers team is also promising, hope they keep their feet on the ground and will try to avoid dozens of disputable rejections which offen happen at the other sites.

Editorial is great, all these pictures we can take in public places with crowds or of buildings for non commercial use, brilliant. Tried their website, fast, pricing not bad, yes, very simple website, sounds good at first glace. I’ve used your link Lee, so you’ll get a share of what I’ll earn – if I do. There is a weatlh of photos I could not upload on other website that I’ll be able to on YAY.
Beware of not being too carried away and posting some pics that could be use for exhibitions etc…

So far so good, but as we say, the proof is in the pudding

I think it’s worth to mention that yaymicro plans to put a special stress on editorial pictures – but I am not exactly sure what they mean by “editorial”.

As the founders come from a traditional stock they naturally do know the stock picture market in Scandinavia.

Another interesting point is that they plan to go with selected targeted marketing and sales. I am not sure whether it is a good or a bad thing, but as they know the market it could work well…
