    Question Help with a few images?

    Hi Folks, The committee has had a request from the marketing executive of "the outdoor show" for information and images about our hobby. She's writing a dummies guide to geocaching, and needs a few images relating to geocaching for the copy. Does anyone have images of a typical cache, caching equipment, someone finding a cache, that they wouldn't mind being used for the copy?

    Any help would be much appreciated.
    I'm just going outside, and may be some time!

    Is the booklet for marketing purposes?

    I sent some pictures in. I hope that they're acceptable.

    No fee required.

    After a similar request recently I created a small pool of stock photographs of caches here. I'm going to have another go soon as I'm now better equipped for it.

    Just an aside. A year or so back groundspeak contacted quite a few people, including myself, to ask for use of pictures.
    I replied that if the use for for non commercial use and they would have no direct financial gain from my images then I was happy for them to use them. But if they ever intended to use them for their own gain, in a calander or other way then I would require some form of commision.

    I got the reply that I obviously wanted something different from them and as such they would not be using my images, their email was worded in a manner that suggested that I was being unreasonable and rude in my request.

    just thought I'd share.

    Thanks for that link, Tim... I see I'm underselling myself - years ago I used to be up-to-date with rates, but I only sell the occasional pic now. The last one went to the British Library for a book they were publishing, and based on that list I could have charged three times what I did, doh...
