    • Normal: As a registered user you can search for images, put them into the shopping cart and download them after payment at PayPal. Important: after payment you will be directed to the download page. Wait a moment and do not close the browser under any circumstances. Click on "Reload" (possibly several times). As a registered user you will also get access to your previous orders (collections) and other features (saved search, search alarm, own dashboard)
    • Media: Media have complete download access to all photos. The licence costs are roughly based on the fees of the Mittelstandsgemeinschaft Foto-Marketing (MFM), but are negotiable depending on the intended use and medium. Invoicing is subject to prior agreement on the conditions and after publication.
  • Other Editorial / commercial users: If not registered as "media", there is the possibility to request photos for a defined purpose from frontalvision.com. We will then send you a price offer.
