VectorEdit - creative royalty free vector illustrations

I think it would be correct to provide more information for consumers and talk about sites that are not so known, but deserve attention.

First among them will be microstock site VectorEdit. I present you an interview with one of the founders of the resource Nick Thomas.


Hello, Nick. I would like to ask a few questions. Primarily: As far as you are a new site?

Hello to all. VectorEdit is a royalty free vector illustration source which we built a few years ago. It took a while to build the site, with the online payments etc. and it also took a while to upload and create entries for so many illustrations! We're always adding new illustrations to the site, but the site really went 'live' in 2009.

Who is your team?

We're a very small team! Paul Middlewick is the illustrator and designer. I'm the production specialist, website builder and admin contact.

Why did you run a website?

We created VectorEdit to re-use the many, many illustrations Paul had created over the years for advertising and marketing designs, visuals and concepts. As part of this work, we're always going back to previous projects to re-use elements or illustrations for new work and we thought other designers and visualisers could share the benefits of our work. So, we built VectorEdit. We've kept the costs very low as we see our customers as being creative people like ourselves who just need quick, high quality elements for them to complete their own designs.

How is your project different from other stocks? What makes it interesting for buyers?

VectorEdit is different to other sites because we aim our illustrations at fellow artists and designers. Our work is of the highest quality and, if the .eps version is purchased, fully editable making them ideal for other designers and illustrators to be able to use them in their own work quickly and easily.

It is possible to become your contributor?

We have thought of allowing other illustrators to add their work to VectorEdit, but are concerned that the quality of their work might not be up to our standard and so, for now, we're sticking to our own work.

Have you referral programme?

No, we don't have a formal referral programme. We rely on word-of-mouth and recommendation from our satisfied customers to spread the word about VectorEdit - always the best way!
