Hi,
I have few questions for Pov artists that had put images for sale i.e. on 
Zazzle.com (or some other simmilar page). Is it possible to earn some quite 
good money by it, or usual it gives less then even i.e. 50$ / month / good-
image ?

In other words - can it be notticible extra source of money, or rather not?

Assuming that artist hase medium-skills (nope - it's not me, yet ;)

Maybe someone here has some experience in Zazzle sels and I can contact him  
by email?

The general consensus is that Zazzle is not a reliable source of income,
noticable or otherwise. On the face of it Zazzle sounds like a great idea
but the truth is that there is simply to large a selection available for
participants to attract the kind of attention necessary to generate steady
sales.

Zazzle is great for getting posters of your own work.

Giles is probably the only POVer who's made any money though.

I suspect the owners of Zazzle are doing pretty good by now. Wish
I had thought of it.
