Alamy Images
Alamy Images offers access to images from 150 agencies and 1901 photographers worldwide, and seeks to provide image buyers with a single source for royalty free and traditionally licensed image needs. Based in the UK, with distributors worldwide, Alamy is marked by a strong technological bent that allows it to provide cost-effective new products and services for customers and to pay flexible rates of commission to contributors. This, in turn, explains agency ceo James West, "means we attract some great contributors who have never previously been able to afford to sell their work online as well as leading digital image brands." This same technology has created a robust website, including an Easy Download tool for high resolution images for certain licensed image users and a new Virtual CD option. Customer service is strong as well, with every customer having a named contact and free access to searches. At the site, regular Amazon voucher offers and free catalogs are also available.
