Selling images - where/why etc!

As a total beginner, this is way off in the distance to consider, but what is generally the best way to sell your images?

I'm a member of 123RF (due to getting stock images for my web design business) and you can sell images through them (40% a sale) - but is there any other ways that are considered better?

i.e. a better site for doing this, or setting up your own site etc etc.

Thanks for any help!

Stock libarires are the obvious choice. But competition is tough. Standards are high. Money is a bit poor too!

Yea of course - but I think the amount of images needed per day by designers should mean enough to go around

I'm not looking to make a career out of photography, it would just be nice to see if you could get a bit of pocket money coming in.

What Stock Library is considered 'the best' on here?
