I have contributed to Alamy almost 10 years now and have well over 15,000 images online. I average a minimum of several image license sales every week of the year.

I had a good number of sales and the 5000 pixel+ images looked just a touch softer than 6 megapixel DSLR shots on Bayer sensors treated the same way. Yesterday I made a $400 travel brochure cover sale from one of these and decided to look at the image, as I was curious to see if I remembered the origin of it correctly - and I had considered, last year, trying to locate

When you bring a RAW/DNG file from Lightroom to CS, work on it and save it, it adds '-Edit' automatically to the original file name. Can you change this to a different word instead of 'Edit'? Sung
