I am not sure how old this news is, but I just noticed it. Of course I don't spend much time on the buyers side of 123RF but they have added a rewards point system. Just by purchasing images, you can earn yourself and IPod, graphics tablet and many other goodies. Not a bad deal.

With each agency trying to come up with something new to keep buyers loyal, this is just another creative step. I may actually start purchasing from there. (Currently I stick to Fotolia and Dreamstime).

This is very interesting. I hope that it brings in more business. Every month I "just about" stop uploading to them, but I still have faith in their ability to pull in a few more customers.

I ahve started earning credits aswell. Not sure how but I have never bought any and 1 keep getting 1 every week or so (wehn I submit?)

hey I just sign up with them and their commission structure is good, on top of that they have other perks like rewards points (http://www.123rf.com/rewards/) and referral program that actually pays (http://www.123rf.com/submit/referralprogram.php)

The credits are for refferals as far as I can tell. They had a little thing going, but I thought it had stopped already. I see a few roll in here and there. I have about 20 credits to spend, though I sell more than I buy on 123RF, maybe I'll buy some more images and find something to do with them.
