Index Stock Imagery and NewsCom Expand Their Relationship
NewsCom Will Represent IndexOpen
New York, October 2005 – Index Stock Imagery, www.indexstock.com is pleased to build upon its longstanding relationship with NewsCom, www.newscom.com, in two new ventures. NewsCom will represent the Royalty Free subscription product, IndexOpen, www.indexopen.com, to its world media customers, giving them the opportunity to access 80,000 high quality images in a subscription model. IndexOpen was launched last fall and has more than tripled its image offering with no additional cost to the customer. The offer of high-resolution images in all categories and subject matter has been extremely successful for graphic designers.
Index Stock has also provided NewsCom with a large selection of additional Rights Managed images for their site, including contemporary lifestyle, travel, business, industry, education, historic and science, now totaling close to 200,000.
“NewsCom’s distribution of our Rights Managed digital content to their vast array of online customers is a perfect venue for Index imagery. We are also excited to make IndexOpen available via NewsCom. This is an ideal alliance,” says Peter McCluskey, VP of Distribution at Index.
"NewsCom is pleased to expand our relationship with Index Stock to offer our media customers additional images from their prestigious collection, along with new content from IndexOpen and their Royalty-Free subscription product," said Bill Creighton, General Manager of NewsCom.
