Thanks for your helpful responses.
There is another issue that comes to mind, that of Fine Art photographers (or any other fine artists) that are trying to make a living from their work. In this case no one pays them to take and post-produce the work, so the above idea would not be of benefit.
In addition I am still skeptical about the benefit to commercial photographers as well. In some service fields like perhaps wedding photography, that may work fine, however, for fields such as advertising I could see the photographers (or other image makers) getting completely ripped off. Big money advertising relies on creative imagery and makes a huge profit, why should we let them take all the profit from our skills and talent? I put a lot of time and money and expertise in to my work and I am hoping that it will allow me to have a fulfilling career, which also means relying on my skills to pay my bills and knowing I will be fairly rewarded.
All this said, I would still be interested in figuring out how this would work, perhaps in limited cases?

This sounds like a very interesting idea, I'm into the concept, but I do not understand how creative professionals are supposed to generate income with this model. I understand how this could help people reach new audiences and make business connections, just not how we are getting income from our images (in my case as a photographer) if anyone could use them for income as well.
Please discuss this, thanks!
