We received our iStockphoto newsletter about 20 minutes ago, and scrolled down to the iStock TOP 8. You would assume this would be the top selling photos on iStockphoto, or even perhaps the highest rated images. So we clicked on one of the images to see how many images you need to sell to get in to iStock’s ‘TOP 8′…

Well, it would appear you don’t have to sell any. The featured image* (whilst very nice!) has been on iStockphoto for nearly a month, had ZERO sales, only been viewed 21 times, and had 4 reviews. I’m really not sure how this qualifies the shot to be featured in iStock’s Top 8. I mean, if the photo really was a hot shot, I think it would have sold at least one image so far don’t you?

What’s going on iStock…?

MarioKart for Wii has one of the coolest websites for a game that we’ve seen recently, the interaction is simple enough for a kid, yet really enjoyable for an adult too. This fine balance was created by F-I (of course!) who seem to have a very firm foot in the door with Nintendo right now, after their amazing Wario Shake YouTube advert.

Jewellery from http://alt-go.fr/

We’re totally loving the new jewellery range from http://alt-go.fr/

Made from weird bits of plastic and metal, this years range are truly off the hook. They also have a totally rad website worth checking out even if you’re not in to rings and stuff!

We like the clothes on Torso Clothing’s new site. The site is built using the nice Big Cartel system for small businesses looking to sell LESS than 100 items. Torso’s tee’s are really nice and all well made, well worth checking out.

PSP have just launched a fantastic website highlighting that the PSP is not just a games machine, is the mighty iPod Touch and iPhone posing a bit of a threat to the Sony handheld… we think so…

Check the Sony PSP site, its sweet!
