I have no where near that number with Alamy (maybe 10 per cent of it) because I find the whole process with them so time consuming, and you have no idea what is being looked at, downloaded etc etc to give you some guidance. My stock on line is increasing daily with others, and I am constantly amazed how quickly stuff gets looked at once it is uploaded. Images are often looked at by potential buyers within a couple of hours of being uploaded. I am trying to get my back catalog on line as quickly as possible but it is such time consuming work scanning, captioning, keywording etc. and frankly so boring but it just has to be done. Congratulations again on your big sale, and I look forward to us meeting again sometime (we met briefly at BD's house if you recall) especially f you ever get to the UK.
