Crestock,

I was wondering, seeing as the photoshop contest is such a hit. Is there any chance of accepting these "type" of images as stock, While I realize they aren't traditional stock images, lots of people seem to love creating them. So is there a market for this type of microstock, personally I'd say yes.

just a suggestion, but I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Well, when you upload an image to the competition you do get the choice to include it in the Crestock image bank. So I'd say yes, they do want to consider the images from the photoshop competition as possible Crestock images.

well I know they make mention of uploading, but I don't see how you could upload contest submissions, as all stock work needs to be your own. ie not using anyone elses artwork. As the contest is based on others stock. I doubt, your allowed to do that. But, either way, I wasn;t asking about using contest submissions, just images like them, ie heavily photoshoped, compilations. Or would they simply get rejected (no matter how nice) as not stock material?
