Lately there's been lots of talk about different stock photo sites in the threads. I did a quick search (I said quick) in the website suggestions forums but I don't see any suggestions for a DPCStock site. I know some of the stuff on DPCPrints could be considered stock, but the site is not really geared towards the end user who wants to download for print media or the web. Maybe Drew and Langdon should consider another offshoot, totally dedicated to stock photography. Thoughts anyone?
I already suggested this idea to Drew; he said anything like that would be "a ways off". (In other words, they have plenty to keep their plate full for a while!)

I'm sure they have plenty. Just wanted to add that DPCStock could help raise the profile of DPCPrints (and vice versa of course). Think of all the people looking for stock photos that could potentially get side-tracked with links to DPCPrints.
And I would rather the my % to the admins here than any other site!!! They do an awsome job!!! :-)
Maybe if some other highly regarded shooters like yourself would speak up it might get noticed. :) Like you I'd rather give a percentage to a site I know and trust.
Keep in mind, getting a stock business going will be a pretty serious time committment. I agree that having a stock add on to DPC has some possibilities, but we really need to get DPCPrints developed more fully before we start adding new bits.
More than one online site has gone belly up by trying to do too many things at one time. I would not want to see that happen here. :)
