WordPress.org

If you don't already have an account, register at iStockphoto here or register at Fotolia here. Once you have an account, setup the username and password in the plugin configuration so it can license and download the photos using your account.

After the plugin is installed and configured, the Microstock Photo module will appear below the edit window for each post and page of your blog. Write your blog post as normal. Add tags to the post using relevant keywords. The plugin will automatically search for photos which match the tags you insert. Flip between iStockphoto and Fotolia's search result if you've configured accounts for both agencies. Sort the search results by Download, Price, Relevance etc.. If you donÕt see appropriate photos, try using different tags until you find photos you like. You can always switch back to the tags you want to use once youÕve inserted the photo.

Once the search results appear and you see a photo you want to use, simply click it. The plugin will guide you through buying the photo and automatically download it to your Media Manager and insert it into your blog post.

Resize, Crop or Rotate the photo to fit it perfectly into your blog post

You can choose the size and position of the photo, and you can use it as many times as you like from your Media Manager.
