28 MB stock, plus thousands more images, available by subscription starting at US$179.00
Thursday, August 19, 2004. Hemera®, a world leader in wholly owned, royalty-free digital image content, today announced an update to AbleStock.com® (www.ablestock.com). The new site offers over 80,000 images, including high-resolution stock photos (28 MB+), via one single subscription, providing creative professionals with unprecedented quality and value for money. Customers pay once and have access to all the large file sizes that they need.
"Our customers loved the new images our content partners brought to AbleStock.com earlier this year, but some of them expressed concern about having to manage multiple subscriptions," said Kim Dixon, president and CEO of Hemera. "By making all the images on AbleStock.com available through one single subscription, we are providing outstanding quality, content variety and usability. At $799 per year for the entire image collection, it's clearly an incredible offer."
AbleStock customers can still purchase and download images as single-image purchases for $149, or sign up for 1- and 6-month subscriptions at $179 and $599 respectively. Agencies can buy multiple-user licenses for one year, for $1599 (5 users) or $2599 (10 users). For designers who prefer to keep their images on physical disks, AbleStock also offers 20 themed CDs with 100 high-resolution images each, priced at $149 per CD.
"Hemera has always been dedicated to bringing the highest quality and the best value to our customers," said Alison Canavan, vice president of marketing at Hemera. "From the people who use the 1 MB images on Hemera Image Express and the 15 MB images on Hemera Image Express Premium, to the demanding creative professionals who require the 28 MB images on AbleStock.com, we meet all their needs by offering relevant and versatile images in an easy-to-use service."
AbleStock.com offers over 44,000 stock photos, 26,000 Photo-Objects® images, 1,000 raster and 10,000 vector illustrations.
