Keyword Tips
(part of the text was taken from iStockphoto.com)
Keywords are the most important information you can provide to help buyers find your images. While people often know the specific subject they are looking for, concept keywords may help to inspire the end-user to choose your images.
Describe the subject of your image. You can have 20~50 words to describe all the pertinent details, and the more specific you are, the more likely your image is to be found by the right searches. Those are what you can describe:-
- the subject (tree, car, butterfly, man, women, children...)
- physical appearance (muscular, powerful, fit, strong...)
- what they're doing (walking, reading, talking...)
- where is the place (garden, home, school, beach, ocean, sea...)
- how they feel (healthy, powerful, happy...)
- the kind of picture (cartoon, caricature...)
- technical aspects of the image (vector, illustration, vertical...)

What is Model Releases and Property Releases?
A model/property release is a written agreement between the model/property owner and the photographer whereby the model/owner gives his/her permission to the photographer to use the photographs commercially in perpetuity (meaning for all time). Releases can permit the use of the image(s) for all purposes, or may contain exceptions for certain usages. (text taken from 123rf.com)
Each RF site have their own release form. Download only when you need it.

What is First name? what is Second name?
For chinese name, always remember "first name" is your surname. ex. Chin king kong, first name is "Chin" & the second name is "King Kong". In this way, when they issue you the cheque your name will come up correctly.

Use Paypal
If you want to get your money faster, register a paypal account and change your payment method to paypal. Some of the RF site they take to 2 weeks to process your cheque. After that it take 2 weeks for the cheque to reach your door step (depending on your location). Finally you get the cheque & bank-in to your local bank. Your bank then will take 4 weeks (1 month) to process a foreign cheque (also depending on your bank).
