Pietrach Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Hi, I uploaded few news images this morning, and got asked by Daily Star on Twitter if it is available via alamy. I confirmed and heard nothing back. Now, I found that they used it on they website, crediting Alamy. Does it mean it was purchased? Any idea when I will now any details? https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/709569/glasgow-fire-gorbals-tower-block-scotland-thick-smoke-rises-top-floor-flat https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/974092/Glasgow-fire-Gorbals-smoke-scotland-news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niels Quist Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Yes. Keep an eye on your reported sales - it should be reported as a sale within three months. Perhaps sooner as it is a news image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynne Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Yes. As Niels says it should be reported within 3 months but I've had a few that took much longer than that. Make sure you keep screen shots as well as links to the articles. Then you can show and advise Alamy if it's not appeared as a sale within 3 months.

Matt Limb Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 My experience of LiveNews has been very positive with Alamy I normally get a cutting email over a few days after the images are used and generally the end of the following month the sales appears on my account.

Matt Limb Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Maybe I should have added that virtually all my LiveNews license has been for the UK broadsheet newspapers. Don't see anything exclusive ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
