As a Licensee, can I resize the image and show the original image and the resized image side by side? One of my products is an image down-scaler and I would like to be able to show the original and the down-scaled image to allow my potential customers to compare the down-scaling quality.
...and who is GumGum? where can we find some company info?
Where do we collect when GumGum goes out of business?
We really like your # 13
As a contributor how do we get paid? You never ask for a name, address or anything when registering.
Intriguing concept and one that may have some real merit in the crowded stock marketplace emerging online. I'm glad to be part of it.
But, as others have posted, I am also am wondering about how you intend to pay your contributors since you don't have anything other than our email addresses at this point.
And finally, I've been having some off and on problems uploading digital photo files. Is there a maximum size limit?
do you suggest file size, picture dimensions in pixels?
The Deposit page, is that to put $ on Gum Gum account? or to Remove the money we "contributers" collect?
And why is there no option for PayPal?
Also a page indicating some company infomation, etc would be more "profesional".
I love the concept, but why don't you
have IPTC data embedded on files, so I don't have to rewrite title, description and tags/keywords?
Congratulations on finally finding a licensing model that makes sense!
How do you distinguish editorial and commercial use? Some images will not have permission for commercial use, but can be syndicated for editorial.
