Ace Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 I cannot understand the point in Alamy selling a photo license (in today) for pennies and then having 50% of those pennies. Worldwide editorial usage. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worldwide editorial usage. Because, for Alamy, many a mickle makes a muckle. Although I doubt very much if they get a muckle of mickles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not if it's novel use. At least NU didn't count in the past, maybe it's different now. Let's hope it's different now. (4 for me as well.) wim edit: No novel use these ones as far as I can see.

Reimar Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Don't know whether to laugh or cry. My first sale this month for 0.49 net, and RM too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Gaffen Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 I would just die for a 0.49 sale in November! (just joking of course), but things seem to have gone awfully quite on the sale front, must be the election, or something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geogphotos Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 (edited) Found one of mine on the Culture Trip site. Lots and lots of Alamy images. At least they are using Alamy rather than a competitor - Alamy offers more in depth and variety I should think.

Does Scotland have its own rules on copyright? As far as I am aware the educational uses listed above require a licence. If an educational institution is preparing a pack of materials including images for their teachers and students to use then they need to purchase a licence to make them 'copyright safe' particularly for worldwide distribution ( because, as you say, rules vary from country to country). The fee is totally derisory for such a use. Edited December 6, 2019 by geogphotos 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking only of within on institution, which is Fair Use (in the UK). I guess we just have to imagine that, as this isn't a standard licence, the uses were discussed by Alamy before purchase. Well, I'd like to imagine that, but ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
