Hi Mandy, Thank you so much for your kind words and encouragement! You are indeed one of those very skilled and talented photographers that I admire. You have an amazing portfolio of outstanding images! It's funny how small the world is despite how big the web is ... I actually came across your photos several months ago when I was browsing images for a client. I do regular free-lance work for a local psychological organization and when I saw many of your family and social issues images, I sent your link to my contact there for future reference ... they try to refresh the images used on the web and in community literature and brochures about once a year, and they are also affiliated with several other organizations that use stock images as well. Hopefully, they have or will become regular buyers of your great images! Will check with them and let you know if/when they have some of your images in use! Again, big thanks, Mandy! Keep up your terrific and inspiring work! : ) Teri posted in My First Find!

I just found one of my photos from Dreamstime in use ... first time I've gotten to see how some used one of my images. Geez ... I feel like a giddy school girl who just got asked out on her first date! Don't know how to embed a thumbnail of the DT photo, but here's the link to the article where I found it: http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/206229/how_to_get_your_mail_in_rebate_faster.html It's a freebie image, but it was still exciting to click on an article and see my photo with Dreamstime credits. I really appreciate the opportunity and the encouragement that everyone at Dreamstime (admin and fellow contributors) have given me ... I'll never be an outstanding photographer like Yuri and so many skilled and talented folks here, but all of you have helped me in developing a better eye for stock photos -- both as a contributor and a buyer. Big Thanks DT and all who share their knowledge and experience with us on the boards! posted in My First Find!
