Last week was slower than I expected after having a strong October but I'm starting to see things pick up now this week.

I'm seeing exactly the same. istock is snoozing, while I'm on pace for a BME at SS.

For those who see slower than expected sales at SS, do you have Christmas images? I have been having a good week at SS so far and there's a ton of Christmas stuff in the mix.

I don't have xmas stuff either. I don't have any seasonal stuff at all. I'll have to force myself to do it in the future, Easter for example, though I'm not sure how I'm going to convince my mum to color the eggs 5 months ahead of schedule

Very good so far, exept for IS, The house-collection of the Getty-RM, have sold me pics for well over a 4-figured amount, not bad.

on track of last month (all agencies) perhaps FT/DT a little higher

(I hope there isn´t a min sales to enter this topic, don´t wanna hear this or that)

Good thread, I have been wondering how Nov is going for others.

It's off to a very slow start for me, but I have not been uploading much and my few Christmas images are 3-5 years old. Since so many people here are doing well, I have to chalk up my bad Nov start to not submitting enough, I guess.

I hate to say anything because I'm downsizing except on SS and BigStock, but haven't removed any files from the last "other" RF sites. SS will be equal to or over Oct. by the 15th and I don't get those wild swings from ELs. That's just 25-a-day and an on demand. The only day I didn't have a download was the 1st and there are many times when I have a Sat. or Sunday with no downloads. (consider the source...)

So yes, SS is doing better than last month, by about double the number of downloads. Money will reflect that as well I suspect, but I hate to predict in advance, with Thanksgiving coming up for the last full week.

I don't know if it's just me, but I do upload more from Oct. to April, something new almost every week. Even with the messed up search and database, those new files are selling, which may be a slight boost as well.

things are looking pretty on par with last month for me, Shutterstock is perhaps a bit up.

Agree!  SS, is really booming, selling more then ever. DT, is doing fine and ,yes!  FT, is really coming on.

DT better then usual, SS as usual (which is nice), all the rest as usual (which is bad!).

I have no xmas images on SS. I made some illustrations that were approved everywhere but on SS. They said they are too simplistic.

For me, IS was very slow in the first week. This week has been decent. I hope US Thanksgiving weekend will not set everything back.
