2008 Annual Summary

2008 was an up and down year, it started strong, but finished the year pretty slow, I guess the economic downturn actually have an impact on stock photo as well, but overall the year is pretty good compared with 2007, let me first summarize the December result:

Dec. was extremely slow for the big three, IS, SS and DT, however the smaller agency doesn't seem to be affected as much:

FT $104.87 Ranked #1 for the first time!
123rf $ 77.01 Ranked #2 for the first time!
DT $ 75.89 A little improved over last month
IS $ 73.27 Pretty lousy month
BSP $ 67.00 Just like any other month
SS $ 64.13 Worst month ever
SXP $ 50.40 Like any other month
----------------------------------------------------
Total $512.57 Worst month of the year


But for the year the total is 7907.00 which is more than 1 1/2 year of total earnings, so the result is pretty decent.
