Corbis lets photographers set fee

Corbis on Monday launched its own "microstock" site, following its two biggest rivals and several smaller ones into the domain of websites where customers can buy images inexpensively. [via USA Today]

"The site, called SnapVillage differs from several of its rivals by letting photographers set their own prices from a range of options: $1, $5, $10, $25 or $50. The company hopes that choice, along with flexible but easy search tools, will encourage photographers to contribute and customers, such as ad agencies, to buy."
