You provide K-State University Relations with CDs of your photos with
two versions of each
photo: 1) a low res version with a watermark of your
choosing; and 2) a
high res version with no marks that we will provide to
the buyer.
Although we encourage you to edit your photos as much or as little as
you wish, many buyers want a full frame image for use on covers of
publications, or inside with copy printed over the photo. We encourage
you not to crop.
We will not select every photo submitted to us for our stock photography
site. Sometimes we receive images that are very similar to ones we have
already accepted. If we have too many of one kind of image, we won't
add more that are similar.
How you are paid:
To begin, we will charge the buyer $6 for each stock photo. The
photographer will receive $3 for each image sold. We will keep track
of sales and will send a check quarterly. If you are a student
photographer, be sure to keep us informed anytime you move. Your stock
photos could continue to sell long after you graduate.
Visibility:
We plan a Web page with thumbnail photos or avatars (ala flickr) of each
photographer, along with a brief blurb about each person -- either
describing their photo style, or a sentence or two about the person.
This is optional, but we think it will be fun. If you choose this
option, give us one or two sentences about your photo work, photo
philosophy, etc. Let us know whether you consider your style
traditional, edgy, etc.
Identifying your photos:
We will code your photos with your initials and a number for each photo.
If you prefer to remain anonymous, we will assign you a number without
initials.
