Search & sort alghoritm of Istockphoto is better than Fotolia and Shutterstock. More graphics means not better service. Pictures must be easy to find and well-sorted.

There are many factors to decide:

Quality of images
Quality of ideas
Quality of photographers
Quality of search-system and keywords
