Hi Roberto,
My second half of november was slow also, too bad I was on track for a BME:( You are doing quite well at Fotolia, much better than me !
I am not looking forward to December, the slowest month of the year…

Hi Laurent,
I've seen that your chart "profile" was similar…
Fotolia is giving me satisfaction, I've got especially the wood pellets series that is selling pretty well (I think French and German clients above all).
Thanks for your comment and let's see December…
