On New Year's Day we had a party at our house.  In the middle of the afternoon, while sipping a glass of wine in a room full of people, I pulled out my phone and checked email - and I'd just made a sale at GL!   I think it's a good omen. 

I think what happened is they got lots more images faster than they got new buyers.

There are a few things about GL I really like -
1. FTP is quick and easy and there aren't lots of categories etc. etc. to mess with
2. you can set a higher image price - I haven't done this, but it is a nice option
3. the people working there actually listen to us and communication is clear and goes both ways
4. the commission % is nice
5. A number of the images accepted into the GL collection are images that I particularly liked but other sites rejected - they aren't all the same old same old.

Sales there lately haven't been as good as they were in mid 2011 when I had a few EL sales (I joined in early 2011), but they do continue. I fear that customers haven't kept up with the massive influx of new images but hopefully with all of the new content the customers will follow.

It's been pretty stable there. I'd love to see them keep growing though. I'm probably due for some more uploading there.

My sales at GL weren't bad in Dec, considering the normal Christmas slowdown. And I've had some sales in January. GL is still one of my favorite sites. Fair reviews, easy uploading, and very fair pay rates.

After a dead October and November, I got one $15 sale around Christmas and two $6 sales this year already.
 
I like the higher prices and the higher royalty-%. Granted, sales are very slow, but since uploading with StockSubmitter is easy, I'll stick with them.

I'm curious what their new layout will bring; more customers? more traffic? more sales? Let's hope so.
