APA (Advertising Photographers of America) did just that, they spoke with MP management, agreed to work together in the future and joined a steering committee. <BR/><BR/>What I like about APA is, they don't get up in the rafters and shout about how great they are. They just get the work done. Constance, the National Director/CEO for APA send out an email, outlining the steps taken and what has been accomplished.<BR/><BR/>Kudo's go to photographers for expressing their concern, to Constance and APA for taking care of business and to MP senior management for doing the right thing - the public apology was important, severing the relationship with istockphoto was the key to making things right.<BR/><BR/>Will I use MP again. Yes. Will I try out other printers. Yes.

Blakes Millers at ext. 2030. Give him a call and ask him why he is so shallow that he could care less about the photographers that rely on mom-and-pop type business. You have to realize that the person who approved that email is not in the profession, he is a marketing puppet that is luered to the idea of big money no matter what the cost.<BR/><BR/>So give Blakes Millers a call at 800-959-8365 ext. 2030 and say, "Hi, why are you taking food away from my family."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553278593406733377.post-71006724911962193132007-08-28T12:31:00.000-04:002007-08-28T12:31:00.000-04:00Monumental screwup with overtones of greed and arr...Monumental screwup with overtones of greed and arrogance "they'll (photographers) never see this", which is inexcusable but predictable these days.<BR/><BR/>I applaud the step they took in discontinuing their relationship with an industry damaging business.<BR/><BR/>I personally consider their alleigance clarified and will be proceeding with my pending job with them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553278593406733377.post-1131564583412601272007-08-28T07:20:00.000-04:002007-08-28T07:20:00.000-04:00As one of the people who emailed them, I want to s...As one of the people who emailed them, I want to say kudos to Modern Postcard for doing the right thing and pulling out of the iStock deal. In the long run, this might have been a good thing in that it got a lot of publicity and helped spread the word about what a bad thing iStock and the like are for our industry.Mark Scheuernhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01276892867286487970noreply@blogger.com
