Of course, May isn't over yet but you get the idea. It's pretty obvious that I need 1800 more uploads. Well, probably less, because as you build your portfolio, you clue in to what sells, and also become a better photographer. Another factor is the growth of the site itself, with more and more buyers joining everyday, each photo will perform that much better for you.
It's getting to the point that I can request a cheque about every two weeks or so. It's turning out to be a nice addition to my day job cheque which, although larger comes just about as often. It's like getting a $1.25/hour raise.

I hear you Gary. I did a search a little while ago and found only a handful that divulged their earnings. You can see my latest microstock results, and my article on why nobody displays their earnings.
Looks like you're on a winner with iStockphoto. The challenge now is to continue that trend! Good luck.
