IPN signs deal with Adobe to allow independent photographers to submit RF images
IPN has announced a deal with Adobe to allow independent artists and small agencies to use IPN Relay to submit Royalty Free images into Adobe Stock Photos. This may be the solution for photographers and small agencies who would like to submit images into Adobe Stock Photo which can be accessed directly through the Adobe Bridge integrating stock photos with all of the Adobe products (including Photoshop). Until now photographers and small agencies had no way of working with Adobe, now anybody who qualifies with IPN Relay can submit Royalty Free images to Adobe. To qualify IPN has stated that images will be edited for content, quality, proper releases, and saleability, before accepting an artist into the IPN Relay program.
IPN Relay has been described as an ala-carte version of the popular IPNStock solution which was the first service to offer an e-commerce stock licensing website to photographers and small agencies. The costs to work with IPN Relay have not been disclosed at this time and will depend on the individual circumstances of each contributor. IPN is likely to charge for storage and management of the images and a percentage of royalties. IPNStock has been used by many photographers and agencies including the following (to name a few) Aperture Images, Aurora Photos, CGI Backgrounds, Glasshouse, Graphisstock, Robert Stock, Stock Boston, Woodfin Camp, Zeta Photo.
