Dan James, co-founder of Clustershot, some weeks ago has announced on this blog they was working for new features at Clustershot. Here a summary of the first new features now available.

Photos Sold

In your account you can now see which photos you’ve sold, how much you’ve made off of each photo, number of offers on each photo and the number of converted offers. To access this page simply click on the “View photos you’ve sold” link on your account page.

Webdav

web-dav support (Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning). You can map a network disk on your Mac/PC and use it as a normal folder to paste (or drag and drop) the picture files you want to upload – full help article http://www.clustershot.com/help/addphotos#webdav.

Pro Account

portfolio.mystockphoto.org - clustershot pro account

A pro account is an upgraded normal (free) account and it costs just 20$ for a year subscription. They are still fixing some bugs (I had a great feedback, a bug solved in 2 hours)  but the current upgraded features are:

• Your own photo store. See http://danjames.clustershot.com/ for an example. ClusterShot branding is removed from the header and replaced with your name. On your store, only your photos appear in search results and tagged photos. You can use this store as your own website, or as part of your existing arsenal of photo selling tools.
• Use a custom domain name. Either use the default username.clustershot.com domain to point people to your store, or use your own custom domain (e.g. store.my-awesome-site.com).
  Here’s mine: portfolio.mystockphoto.org or store.mystockphoto.org
• Customize your store with your favourite photos. Choose which photos you’d like to highlight, and feature them in the large photo box on your homepage.
• Be recognized as a pro. On most places (where it makes sense) they tell the world that you’re a pro.
• Highlight your best tags. Choose which tags you’d like to feature on the front page of your store. For example, if you specialize in nature photography, feature tags useful to your customers like wildlife, landscapes and mountains.
• Custom Watermarking. If you are concerned about people downloading the low quality versions we display publicly, you can add your own custom watermark to your photos. I think it’s too big but they told me they’ll re-examine the size of watermarks in the next design review.
• Future-Proof. When you purchase a pro subscription, they guarantee that you will automatically be the first to get access to new features, partnerships, etc.
