    Bobby-
    MeiGray has an agreement with Getty, allowing individual photos to be purchased. I have no idea how much they are, or the specific details, however, I suggest contacting the folks at MeiGray to find out.

    hope this helps.

    Chris,

    On Getty I think you have to have a corporate account and belong to a newspaper or other publication group. It would be great if collectors could purchase photos from getty.

    Hi, can someone please instruct me on how to download images from gettyimages.com? I created an account, put pictures in my cart, but that is as far as I got. Nothing happens when I click on calculate price. When I click on help, nothing happens as well. What am I doing wrong????

    Thanks,
    Chris

    Hello...I know many collectors use Getty Images to reference player photos, however, I can't seem to get the thumbnail images to load into a larger picture...am I doing something wrong?

    Getty Images...?

    Was wondering if anybody knows if you can buy single prints of pictures from Getty Images? Or are all their pictures for marketing? There are a couple of Larry Bird pictures I would like to have from them, but I couldn't find a way to purchase them. Thanks for your help.

    Hello,

    I recently contacted Getty Images about purchasing several pictures from their archives. Unless you represent another media source, they really don't want to deal with you. They will, however, sell you the photo(s) you desire if you are willing to buy,let's say,100 or so copies of the same photo.
    This was my experience. Perhaps you should contact G/I yourself and see what they have to say. GOOD LUCK!

    Chris

    Getty and Corbis are in the business of supply images to newspapers, magazines and books, so you pretty much have to be a publisher to get the big clear images. They are like Associated Press and UPI. If they knew how much game used collectors used their searches, they might not be so exclusive.

    Anybody ever use photoshop to remove a Getty watermark from a photo?

    No-I haven't,but from looking at both Getty and Corbis' watermark it would appear to be easier to photoshop Corbis.

    I asked them about purchasing pics and they quoted me $400 for a 16x20.

    Getty recently added to their watermark, making it larger and more difficult to alter. They realize folks steal their images and many photos have extra logos as watermarks (ie NBA logo), and different companies who own the images. Corbis' watermark is much, much lighter, but larger and harder to remove. I've heard that the "original" watermark that said "gettyimages" could be removed on photoshop with a little patience...this is the only watermark on many vintage photos...recent photos ALL have detailed watermarks that are difficult to alter.

    that's a great site for the 1970s. What about for the 1980's NBA or pro sports in general? LMK. Thanks.
