Imagepick launches royalty-free image bank

▤ Summary

When two former C-level executives leave a monolith like Getty Images it’s a fair bet that they will go and create something smaller, faster moving and a lot less hide-bound by the restraints of picture royalties. And the idea is not to provide royalty free pictures which are basically crap, as is the case normally. It’s already got providers of royalty free images signed up, including Corbis, Jupiterimages, Blend, Rubberball and Westend61. Plus, every image is tagged with the visual elements of the picture, I assume by editors. I also think they should consider adding freely available PR/press photos – that would seed the market and help create more of a destination site for consumers as well as professionals.
