Take Photos For Extra $ And Keep Your Clothes On

Are you an amateur photographer and want an easy way to sell photos? iStockPhoto is a community-based stock photo website that allows users to buy and sell royalty-free stock photos and illustrations. If you’re accepted into the community as a contributor, you can make $ without much effort. I do web design as a side job, so I’ve been a member for years. Purchasing photos are easy and affordable. They even give away one free photo every Sunday. I set up a reminder to download these high-resolution freebies every week. I’ve built up quite a collection over the years.

You can also display your amateur collection on photo sites, like Flickr. Getty Images, the top stock photo provider, actively searches Flickr for suitable material for their collection. You may get contacted for a purchase/licensing agreement, which means cash in your pocket.
