MicrostockGroup

After they changed pricing etc., my sales have gone down drastically. Not a good sign for the future. In addition, all my RM photos there, which are not available as RF anywhere, have been removed   

Earned over 600 Euro at featurepix this year

If Yuri makes only $600 with collection of 20,000 photos I will hardly make $10 in a year with my 1,000 if less sell-able pics.... not worth my time indeed

They haven't been removed - they are back on the edition phase.  Elena said we should prove they are not sold as RF elsewhere.  I still haven't come back and reinstated mine, also because I noticed some flaws in their RM prices.

It's sad that after their changes, sales have been so rare for me.   

FP was my favourite site, but then there was so much confusion about RM vs macro RF vs micro RF during the changes... I don't know.

Are they still alive, I got last sale about year ago :-)

I still get the occasional sale but like others here, the price changes look to of wrecked the site.  It was bad enough only getting one sale a month but now I get less than that and make less when I do sell something.  I stuck with them because when I did sell something, it was worthwhile but now I don't see much point using them.  Buyers seemed just as likely to buy with the old higher prices.

I do think the small sites have been hit hard by the economic downturn.  If I was a buyer, I would avoid the small sites because they are more likely to close.  If the worldwide economy bounces back, people might have more confidence in the smaller sites that survived the downturn but it still look perilous at the moment.

I joined them because they sounded and looked promising. That was about a year or so ago. Now when you read the forum and people say they haven't had any sales and aren't uploading any more.....Elena...I believe that is her name.... always tells them it's been a slow month and tells them if they aren't seeing sales then it would proubably be a good idea to stop uploading untill things pick up.........What is that all about?...the administrator is telling you not to upload??? I personally quit uploading because of no sales, but it surprised me she would say something like that if she wanted to market her site. I think she's given up and it is just a matter of time.

Your right about her honesty, I guess I owe her credit for that. Thanks for pointing that out. I hope your right about that "slim chance" because I have a good size portfolio there and it would take forever to get it off there....I don't see me doing it any time soon but I will proubably do it if things don't pick up there soon....one sale over a one year span just doesn't work for me.

No sales so far....my early december uploads are still under review.....Are they still on holiday?

I don't usually post earnings, but these numbers are so far off even my 2nd worst site, I don't care. Here are my monthy earnings since my last payout a year ago. I quit uploading months ago, but never felt it was worth the effort to delete accounts.

2/2009  $11.16 
3/2009  $5.58 
4/2009  $1.12 
5/2009  $7.68 
6/2009  $8.38 
7/2009  $0.40 
8/2009  $4.00 
10/2009  $3.40 
11/2009  $4.00 
12/2009  $2.50 
1/2010  $0.40 

If $5.60 breaks me then I'm in bad shape......
No realy I don't really care, I just wanted to get off there so I wouldn't have to worry about it anymore.
As far as deleting the account, I just wrote to customer service and ask if I had to delete each picture one by one or could they do it for me because I wanted to close my account. It was closed the next day, so if your planning on doing that, I'd do it that way since it would take forever to delete them one by one.
