It would be nice to know what to expect in the Jupiter to Getty transition as a Botanica rights-managed contributor. There's been no word from either party about what will happen in the coming months. Will royalty rates (now 50%) change? Submission process and editing? Availability of existing images for license? Transitioning of customers from Jupiter to Getty? Fortunately, Botanica is only one part of my revenue stream (although a decent fraction).
