Being already one of the most used online image storage platform, Flickr now creates a highly convenient marketplace for making buying and selling of images a breeze for everyone.
Some of the main features from this great free service includes multi parameter search with negative keywords which returns as many thumbnails as your screen can display, saved searches with roll-back, auto/bulk watermarking and royalty free licenses based on Creative Commons, archived for public inspection at any time.
As you can clearly see, FlickrCash really makes it hassle free for you thus giving you more time to take even more pictures and also protect your intellectual rights to your images.

WHAT DO CURRENT FLICKR IMAGE OWNERS NEED TO DO TO LIST THEIR IMAGES FOR SALE?
1. register an account with FlickrCash
2. prove that they own and control a Flickr username by adding FlickrCash as a "friend" (this can only be done in the logged in state)
3. tag the images they want to sell with "photoforsale:price=auto" or "photoforsale:price= 24.95" (auto means we set the price based on a calculated market-clearing price) -- if the images are not tagged or the image owner is not validated, the [BUY] button does not appear

TO TEST DRIVE...
please register a free account (you can skip Flickr username validation) and click the link in the activation email, then...
1. try a multi-parameter search by dragging parameter fields into the search rectangle
2. try clicking on thumbnails to see preview, plus available sizes (3 largest) and licenses (if any)
3. try dragging and dropping selected thumbnails to the lightbox on the right side; name and save the lightbox; click "INSTALL LTBX" button to see copy and paste code for installable grid and slideshows
4. try a search for "keyword = flowers" and "was taken by = acfou". The flower photos you will see in the result set are mine and are marked for sale. click a thumbnail to get the preview size with sidepanel, a blue [BUY] button should appear above the Creative Commons license (if you’re logged in), click and follow the sequence. Feel free to use 4111 1111 1111 1111 as a test credit card number; we still ping the Google Checkout Sandbox, so the credit card will NOT be charged anyway.
