Wawa Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 A few days ago I stumbled upon following page that gives a brief description about selling Alamy prints through Art.com : http://www.alamy.com/customer/help/alamy-photo-prints-art-com.aspx Description states : "Prices start from $14.99... Photographers will be paid 50% of Alamy's share of the sale. When you make a sale it will show on your account as an Art.com sale." Doesn't give much info beyond that. I know $14.99 is the starting price but I'd like to know what size is that for? And how much for all the other available sizes? I'd like to know if it's worth a shot. Does anyone here have any experience selling prints this way? I sent this same question to Alamy@art.com but I maybe someone here could give me a little info in advance. Thanks.

Jill Morgan Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 You don't have any choice in the matter. Your images are automatically sold through art.com when they go on sale on Alamy. You can't drop out of this even if you want to. Jill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotoDogue Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 From the Alamy link http://www.alamy.com/customer/help/alamy-photo-prints-art-com.aspx " Any image that's available for a personal use license Buy a 'personal use' license for your chosen image and then click the 'order print' button on the order confirmation page. If you've placed Personal Use Restrictions on an image then it shouldn't be available for prints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wawa Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 Hi Jill, I think fotoDogue is right. In Image Manager you can select/deselect a box that states: Don't sell for personal use including single copy, non-retail wall art prints. I'm assuming that means no sale through Art.com. At any rate, depending on prices of various sizes of prints it may be worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thyrsis Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Alamy- Is it still the case that if you add a restriction for ‘personal use’ to any one image, ALL your images will automatically be removed from Distribution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CM photo Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Apparently not. I still get a few distributor sales (I'm only signed up for a handful of countries) even though a proportion of my images are opted out of personal use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
