Can you only have real photography as stock?, as I use both 2D and 3D programs.

If you have the chance to answer this, I just have a question. What type of lights do you use? Whenever I try to take stock photos, my lighting is always too orange.

selene13immortal [2007-09-05 22:54:44 +0000 UTC]

This tutorial was awesome! My friend and I have long been interested in starting and co-running a small fantasy stock account and knowing how to go about it has really motivated me!

One quick question is are you aquainted with Chimera lighting equipment?
We need new lights and lightbanks, made of nice fabric that will survive the trials and tribulations of being walked sat on by evil siblings....*cough*, but Chimera lighting runs a little high.

If you, or anyone else, has experience with their lighting equipment I'd love to have opinions!

Thanks for the tutorial!!!

do you really have to own an account with "mynickname-stock" or could I use the one I have now for stock photography?

sounds-like-rain In reply to Epika [2007-08-31 14:22:32 +0000 UTC]

You don't have to include "stock" in your name at all, a lot of people do just to let others now it's a stock account if they haven't visited their page before
