2nd best month on SS (almost 15% up from June), average on IS (10% up from June), FT and DT BME (doesn't mean anything since I started to UL again in June and we're talking peanuts here), 123RF's first complete month better than FT and DT (around 75% higher earnings than at either one), so those 2 really are pathetic agencies.

So to sum it up, SS is doing great, 123RF surprisingly well, IS still can't make (much) more than SS makes (with PP royalties included). DT and FT are just a waste of time and I already stopped uploading there again.

My portfolio is quite small.  I seldom participate in the earnings thread ... BUT... had an interesting July.  Dreamstime was the top earner for the first time ever.  Way to go DT.  I would post a BME note in your forum but I've been banned.   

BME getting very close to the 1k $

- SS 55% (3251 pics)
- IS 12% (925 pics)
- 123RF 10% (3835 pics)
- FT 7% (3033 pics)
- DT 5% (2089 pics)

around 10% from other agencies (which remain quite low)

total earnings in July almost the same as in June, but slightly down in comparison with May (BME)

IS          37%     (slightly up)
SS         28%     (slightly up)
DT         11%     (way down)
FT           5%     (way down)
others    17%     (slightly up)

IS used to be close to 50% in my earnings a year ago

reached the diamond canister in IS in July

(iStock exclusive). Good month. 2nd best of year for both $$ and dls. $$$ c16% down from June, which was a big spike since the previous months, but c33% up from last July.
My stats seem to be a mirror image of everyone else's this year, having had a dire beginning to the year, and for the first time, my $$$ YTD is 'just' higher than in 2010.
Nightmare July stats thread in the iStock forum. Ha, Warren, I was just thinking, if Lobo hadn't banned me, there would be a positive post from someone other than a newbie on that thread.  
Hope those who had poor months are 'just' in the Summer Slump.
3 Alamy sales, but some posters over on their forum are reporting good months. (Newbies remember $$ quoted there are generally gross, not what the contributor got.)

July was better than expected.  Despite the Istock decline (which is about 30% YTD), Shutterstock and 123rf are doing very well, and DST and Fotolia are also showing some growth, which gives a bottomline growth of 6% in dollars.  In euros - sigh - it's a different story :  going down just a bit, but I can hardly blame Istock for the financial crisis in the world (or can I ?    ).

no no sales that are entering now are June

down, down, down 

Not a good month for me, an iS exclusive.

quoting you again eheh where are the 500$ daily earnings?? 

My first "summer month" experience. Expected worse and actually had a record month, but mainly due to European site sales. US sites did not drop as much as I expected (bit less in quantity and revenue per sale) and a few "dead ducks" actually showed some life (like YAYMicro), which did help. Thus, quite happy 

Oh well, never mind, we are still friends, hey.
