Re: getty images? purchase

Hey regarding AP images, it seems that you can't view the entire collection unless you have a business, any thoughts since we are the board are probably users for personal use...also can you purchase photos off of the AP website even if the photographers are not part of their group...Thanks!

I made an account on their website with no problems, you just have to fill out the usual "register an account" form.

To purchase photos, click on the link below. Even if the photo isn't on their site, you can describe it and they'll get back to you.

Re: getty images? purchase

their live chat is inconsistent, I was told by one representative I could purchase a sports image for personal use for $150 and another that I could not because it is intended for editorial purposes only, not for private use.

Re: getty images? purchase

Just so people are clear, we have looked into this further and Getty Images does own the copyrights on all their images. If you want to purchase something from them, we suggest you contact them and do it in a manner consistent with their policies.

AP images lets you purchase 8x10s for about $20, if you can get a picture from them.

Correct. Even if the picture you are looking for is not on AP's website you can submit a request for a certain photo. You have to submit the name of the photographer that took the pic, date, and a brief description.

I needed a Devin Hester print for a signing and I found a 150X150 of the photo I was looking for on google. I found the photographers name and the date of the image and submitted it to AP. They had a 16x20 print in the mail for me within a week. And as stated above, it was around $20.

They are much better to work with as far as cost is concerned.

Re: getty images? purchase

I am pretty sure you need to find the image off Getty then contact them to see if it's available for purchase..seems alot of what is on Getty can't be purchased for personal use...what most of us on this board would fall under...

Wire image would be another site for photos....Let me know if you get any help from Getty
