[QUOTE="Eduard, post: 410105, member: 986"] You are a semi-pro, right? If you think there is a possibility that you might use it commercially in the future, why wouldn't you pay the fee? If you decide afterwards to use it commercially, they seem to be pretty flexible to let you pay afterwards with no penalty. Is that their standard policy? If not, and it was me as a professional photographer, I'd pay the fee or see if they have an annual rate. In the US, if I sell a random image as you described, I would be required to report it as income. By that definition, it IS a commercial act. The only other option I can see is to religiously separate potential commercial and personal activities / images. [/QUOTE]
