After reading about the contract on the rights photographers retain of the images and SG not allowing models/photogs to work on other competitors, I'm going to decline working directly with SG. I like the ideals of the website, but the legal restrictsions are too demanding for me.

I have to buy alot of expensive equipment and spend more of my time editing, to get less than half of what a model gets for showing up for an hour? No offense to models with experience and a true calling as a model, but that's some BS. Both should be paid an equally fulfilling amount. This probably started because anyone can grab a digital camera and call themselves a photographer these days. Le sigh.
You would have been an asset to this site. I wish they weren't so strict with photographers.
I think your position is correct, as to time, equipment, and effort.
I wish you all the best!
