When we look at the complete evolution of my iStockphoto and Getty Images portfolios, the trend remains: iStockphoto revenue increases while Getty Images remains constant.

    Nice graphs. It is nice to see someone who is submitting to both iStock and Getty share their earnings graphs. I also find it quite interesting to see the RPI of Getty and iStock converging. Not surprising – but still very interesting.

    Thanks Tyler!
    I just saw the pingpack :-) Yes indeed, RPI is converging and with the entry of professional photographers into the microstock market, soon microstock pricing will become the standard. Glad you liked the charts. I will keep updating :-)
