Been around a while.  I have had a bunch.  I tell them to delete then I optimize keywords and reup.

That's a good idea! My older ones could use some sprucing up, they've changed a lot of their acceptance criteria and I've learned a lot since 4 years ago. I might try to rehab them and re-up.

I have been a contributor for a while and get these emails daily. My approach is to disable old images. I am not convinced the free section provides any good publicity. Also I do not resubmit these photos and invest my time and effort in submitting new content. I think all agencies should start removing old content and the cutoff should probably be 2 yrs, not 4. This is to avoid monstrous 10- 20 mill portfolios that confuse buyers.

Pay the keymasters  and keep them up another 4years

If you were serious, why would someone pay to have a file for sale, which has never sold in four years and will need two sales to get back the money for having it extended. No guarantee that they won't change the rules to 2 years or 1 year, in 2012 either?

I suppose if the files have sales somewhere else, that might be an indication, but if it's a non-seller, why not just clear it out and admit it's a loser?
