Micro Stock Photos, are you using them

I am a photogrpaher and web designer. A few months ago, I started submiting photos to the micro to make some spare cash. Seems that I do well selling photos. Over a grand a month.

What I was wondering is how many of you purchase you RF photos from micros. I have bought a few, but I normally have my own library. The deals seem good.

The link below will show you what I am talking about

Are you spam?
It's getting hard to tell the difference.

I am not spam, just curious.

Currently I am designing a climbing webiste for a guy out of Asia. My photo collection isn't extensive enough for the project. I thought I ask here about the micros. Wnated to see if any of you were happy with the results from those site.

I like the idea of cutting my bottom line and increasing my profit, but I am not willing to sacrifise quality.

Thanks,
Eman

I have no idea what he means by that, it must be a photographer thing, as in the opposite of a macro shot?

shutter stock is great - this is a vein attepmt to direct us to this users profile - but the link relies on user login - if it's not spam, it may as well be.
