A good resource for information not only for stock photography, and if you have a thick skin there is a pretty good critique section with most reviews from people (pro and amateur) who have no other motive than to see you succeed, although they can seem a bit harsh at times. Quite often they offer invaluable suggestions on improving your efforts, technique, settings, etc

I have a lot of stock photography accounts and shutterstock is by far the most difficult to get an account, they refuse photos based on composition settings or focus points wich are completly non-sense and subjective. But maybe its a good source of information I will take a look!
Thanks
