I would never sign with Getty or any other stock agency that pays so poorly.

what a ripoff.
Quote:
Getty usually charges $500-600 for "rights managed" photos that are used exclusively by a client during a given time length, the authors of the photos getting 30-40%. Non-exclusive use of images is charged $250 and the photographers gain 20% of that.
