Description *FULL VIEW PLEASE : there is no way you will see all the details without. *



the stock girl images are of a girl in a sari (an indian outfit) in various poses. I was actually going to do something that conveys a sense of a girl dancing, but it morphed into this. This is multilayered with textures and images, I lost track of the number - I think it's around 24 to 28 layers. I don't know if that's a lot, but it's alot for me.


textures, stock, etc : (me)

Firstly, its a lovely photomanip i love how the poses get slowely more harder to see and fade away from the left to right, and the expression on the right, is just a perfect contrast, great work!

[answer]

taken from the da faq:
Please realise that stock images should be of high quality and low compression. Images that are unfocused, blurry and shaken are not very suited to be used for manipulations or designs. Also, images taken in a low resolution, are neither very suited for use - since you can't size up without losing data. Designers prefer high resolution images, that way no details are lost when they size them down. Therefore; using your webcam to take stock photos are not very smart or appreciated.

personlly i would say go for it, as you really would produce very good, and useful stock images, but its probably just the resolution of the camera which will let you down so people may not use your stock because it would not be very high resolution which would be a terrible shame with all the effort you put into making it.

although i may of just been terrible stupid, as i just rememberd you have used a fuji finepix in the past, and that would be fine to use for stock images

ah ok, well ignore the quality comment then lol

well id work out whether you want to concentrate on your creative photography (which i must say has been very very good of late, "hold on" particulaly is great)

or wether youd like to move into stock....personally id suggest continuing with this account, and then if you have spare time, or spot something that has good stock potential then by all means submit the occasional stock peice to another account
