I just added a handful of high-earning specialty images to P+, so I can't tell you how it's affecting anything yet.  But, oh my...overall my sales and earnings are way way down.  April was down by 1/3 from last April, May is looking to be even worse.  I'm trending to sell 1/3 of the credits I did last year!   Shocked  Add to that the drop in commission from 20% to 16%, and I honestly don't see how P+ is even going to help me.

I'm reluctant to add very many images, because I'm on my way out...been slowly removing my portfolio over the past few months from both IS and TS/StockXpert.  I'd love to add the full quota to P+, but I'm concerned that it might inadvertently tie up the rest of my portfolio for six months by not allowing me to have less than a certain number of non-P+ images.  Does anyone know if this is a problem?

Looks like the DLs are really being transferred from gold+, to silver- exclusives (especially bronzes). Of course I'm not saying overall sales aren't sinking, according to the number of ppl complaining and various site rankings (Alexa and such). If us silver- non-exclusives would be included as well, I wouldn't mind. Diamonds have earned more than enough, time for you to take the path of dinosaurs and let us have so much fun you had from 03 up until 2011 Tongue.

I'd say this was socialist Berc from the forums, but he's a bronze.

Another comrade thinking like me? So there's some hope yet Wink . You seem to be a smart guy, but I have to mention that silver- equals bronze&silver(&beginners), gold+ equals gold and above;)

Today I have 9 Photo+ sales. One for 3.5$. Not exclusive.
Think it's good start. Will see.

I nominated the photo with the best DLs/mo yestarday and got 3 DLs str8 away after a few days with no DLs. It works great with files that were selling good (before the nomination for P+ that is) for some time
