A relatively new site is StockRiot. Here is my referral link:
StockRiot
They started September 2007. Their goal is to provide photographers an outlet to sell stock photos at reasonable prices and with reasonable commissions. The commission on sales is 50%. The sales prices for digital photo are:
$2 Small (800 pixels on the shortest side)
$6 Medium (1250 pixels on the shortest side)
$15 Large (original size, minimum 1600)
The sales prices for illustration are based on complexity and range from:
$3 Simple to
$20 Complex
There is a referral program in place with 10% commission on every image purchased by referred clients for a full year.
I like the design and feel of the site. Here is one of there banner ads:

Another stock site. I wonder when the market will become too saturated with stock sites. It could delude the whole business since many photographers submit all their images to several sites. How many copies of our images can this business handle? We'll probably start seeing sites that demand exclusivity or else you don't get in.

I started with them in April, but really started to upload more images in July. I had now one sale in July and on in August. So it looks like things are moving a little. The exception rate is somewhere in the middle.
I love their statistic program for the referral program, because it shows you where the click are coming from. |

you wonder when??... i think the saturation point is allready here.
There are 6 main microstockstock sites, and the earnings go down from there to mere pennies on thousands of images. I would be happy if there was a new site that grabbed a new market segment and made it to the top 6, but I have my doubts it will happen any time soon.
