Re: getty question
Thanks for the help. I emailed Getty and they called me shortly after. I tried to turn off my explorer/google popup blocker and I was still having problems. What they suggested was to turn off the popup blocker on Norton Internet Security. This worked- I am still able to keep my explorer/google blocker on w/o any problems.

Question regarding Getty Images
I was wondering how you can "buy" images from GI, Corbis, etc. I have some game worns and would like to include pictures of that particular player wearing my jersey. The pictures would be small and would not be distributed. I did a dry run to find out how much a picture would cost and Getty came back with a charge of $220 with the assumption i would be using the picture for mass print. This question does not just relate to GI, but for all similar services. Any help would be appreciated!! Thanks.

Re: Question regarding Getty Images
Yeah, how did you get it to be just $220? Please let me know the exact options you selected because my request came out to like $2200. Ridiculous I tell ya. I tried to write them to explain what I want and why, asking them for a price. And this is what I don't understand, I got no response! I mean ifyou are a business, you would think you would respond if someone is inquiring to buy a product. Anyways, they suck.

Re: Question regarding Getty Images
You can still "save picture as" but the getty images logo will just be over the photo.

Re: Question regarding Getty Images
Here's a way to get your photo matched picture for 19 cents. Find the picture you want (I usually use google images cuz theres no logo across the photo). Then simply print it using walmarts online photo center. It's the same price as regular photos (19 cents each for a 4x6). I actually just got some printed today. I got a few 5x7 pics printed to get autographed since I can't afford to buy tons of photos. They have really nice color AND it's on high-quality paper. Also it only cost me $2 which was already paid by credit card when I first ordered them on walmart. Here's a link to it:

Re: Question regarding Getty Images
I get tired of people busting on MeiGray for offering something that would not otherwise be available to the general public. I'd love the opportunity to get similarly priced images for my non-NHL game used items.

Ok, I saw some previous posts so I wanted to ask if anyone has ever purchased an image from them. going through the pricing it looks as if I purchase the picture it is $220. How does this work? Do they send the image to you as a computer file, negative?
Basically I want to purcahse an immage and have it printed on a canvas, I believe the term is art glicee.
Is this somethign where I can take this to a phtography shop and have them print it up.
If you have seen the Tiger Woods Signed Masters Flag display where there is an image of him put on canvas and then a Masters Flag displayed above it, this is what I am looking at doing.
Thanks for any help

On a side note, what would stop someone from buying one of these images, and printing up 1000's of 8x10's and selling them???
