Everyone has a celebrity-sighting story, be it Beckham on Bond Street, Britney buying Baby clothes, or a Big Brother contestant looking for a job. Now rather than point and stare, it's in everyone's interest to point and shoot.

The public has an insatiable thirst for pictures of their favourite celebrities - a slew of magazines exist purely for this purpose. Now, not only will the public be getting to see the celebrities they want, they will be the ones taking the photographs and collecting the cheques. This is what The Snitcher Desk will facilitate.

With the forever-evolving technology in the world of digital photography - be it on camera phones, or the increasing availability of more compact and higher quality digital cameras - the average member of the public has a good chance of getting a quality shot. Just by being in the right place at the right time, and aided by The Snitcher Desk, any opportunist could find their photographs on the cover of tomorrow's papers around the world.

The Snitcher Desk has achieved this distribution by teaming with major photographic agencies networking around the globe. The submission process is simple. Users can either upload their photos direct to the site or send them instantly by e-mail from their PC or mobile phone. If the photos are good enough, they are immediately piped onto a syndication network and the world's media will have access to them in a matter of moments. The Snitcher Desk only takes a modest 20% cut of the fee received from its partner agencies, returning 80% to their customers, who can relax, as the next steps they will need to take are the ones towards the bank.
