PRESS RELEASES

Affliate Marketing Network To Form NEW YORK, NY - July 16, 2002 - Stock Media Corporation is forming the first marketing network for the stock photo industry. Echoing the model of online exchanges in other industries, the StockMedia.net marketing network will have a cooperative-like business structure that uniquely pays a 20% to 30% sales commission to photographers, agents and companies for referring clients to the network while simultaneously paying 50% to 70% in royalties to copyright holders. Network members, which include both resellers and suppliers, have the optional benefits of displaying their own brand on photo searches, limiting photos displayed in search results to those of one supplier, viewing sales reports instantaneously online, analyzing client search and use statistics online, communicating with clients in collaborative lightboxes, enabling searchable links from any other web site, controlling the countries of sale, and of controlling the licensing fees per image and per country. "In our 25 years in this industry, we've experienced first hand the success of the nineties and its current depression," says Stock Media CEO Randy Taylor. "The timing is right to break from the old formula that's based on maintaining a limited number of subagents, each with regional exclusivity. This new marketing network will enable good sales people and innovative photographers to not only survive, but to rise above the fray." The marketing network will be centered online at www.stockmedia.net which will relaunch in Summer, 2002. The new business plan will include print market sales. Network functionality will be made possible by the newly released version 2.0 of Stock Media 2000 licensing software, the fastest and most versatile platform available for commercial use by agencies. Other sites that are powered by Stock Media 2000 software, such as SolusImages.com and Mira.com, will also be upgraded to version 2.0 for optional network participation. Stock Media is seeking U.S. and non-U.S. resellers to refer clients to the marketing network in exchange for 20% to 30% of sales. Resellers are unburdened by the expense of technology, editing, archiving, supplier relations, and fulfillment which are paid for by suppliers and by the network. Fulfillment will be all digital and will be done by scan-on-demand from suppliers or by instant online download from supplier servers in the network or from Stock Media servers.
