I am thinking really? A week went by and no one responds to me about removing my images?? All the other companies responded to me in some way by the 3rd day. I have messaged them twice.
Why do I have to go through my images myself and remove them individually? Really???  At this rate I will get them all off before they respond to me.
PLUS.. they had some as free images but was when they had it as the 18 months deal not 5 years.. I better get ALL my images off... because the 18 months was up along time ago.

I think they like to punish you. It's OK if you want to leave, but if you do, be prepared to spend a good portion of your time deleting your images. As opposed to how they can do it, which is probably something like taking your contributor folder to the trash and emptying the trash. About 1 minutes worth of work.  Smiley

I once spent 5 months trying to get my portfolio removed from an agency site. I finally resorted to telling them they were displaying my images without my consent as I had already requested their removal and that constituted copyright infringement. Yadda yadda threat, legal action blah blah blah within 24 hours my port was gone.

I don't think a week is enough time to resort to that kind of thing though.

That's disgusting. But not unexpected.

Not hearing from them after a week for an issue as important as this is terrible. No reputable company would take this long.

Well, Fotolia DOES have a reputation and it's all the time up to it.

Why are you leaving?  I noticed that you have no images on any of the other sites.

I am going exclusive to Dreamstime. After reviewing for a particular company for the last 3-4 years, without notice they let me go for the stupidest reasons (not enough communication Hello! I have nothing to say because I know what I am doing.. do you want to talk about the weather? ha )
Soooo anyway.. I make the most at Dreamstime.. I might as well get paid for uploading each image plus get a way bigger percentage. Now I will have more time to add to my portfolio.

Do I need to post to every forum they have.. how many messages should I send to them before they will take off my images?  OK.. Its been over a week Fotolia.. I have posted in your forums send several messages. This for me is very important you remove my images. . I have been doing some myself but I have like 600 to go. It would only take you like 1 second of your time to make me happy and leave you alone.

Why do you have so many free images on DT?  250 compared to 950 for sale, especially when the free ones look just like the ones you are selling.  It looks like you have had more free downloads than paying sales that can't be good, can it?
