If you are using the same Adobe ID that is associated with your Fotolia account, you should be synced automatically. If not, you will need to select yes when asked if you are an existing Fotolia member. At that time you will add your Fotolia login and password.

The login information for Adobe Stock is your Adobe ID, not your Fotolia ID.

Matt, I've been grappling with this for months. I have been a FT contributor for years, and have an Adobe CC account, I'm confused by your statement above.

I attempted to use my Adobe CC credentials but there is no option "you will need to select yes when asked if you are an existing Fotolia member." No option for that either when I try to make a new Adobe Stock Contributor account. I will need it to connect to my existing FT account. How do I do that? Is that option PAST the screen where you create your new account (the one with the birthdate field)?

Thanks for your help, I have gotten zero response from FT on how to do this.

I believe you are thinking of Offset  ...  https://www.offset.com/

I've gotten no relevant communications on this, not sure what to do.  If I don't "sign up" by the "deadline," are all of my images going to disappear?  What will happen?

I'm curious how they think they can stay in business, treating us like this.  Whoever is running the place, go back to the 1700s as a plantation owner, that's where you belong.

I always use this to view all my sales... far easier than anything else.

Right, but that does not show the outstanding balance. I have been over the "threshold" for payout for MONTHS and they have not paid me, and now I cannot even see the number. I think I'll start deleting my port, this is insane.

I have phrases in my metadata and they stay intact.

Looks like Yuri Acurs' stuff.

I have a Wacom Cintiq Companion 2, the one with the Windows operating system and i7 processor, it's like a little turbocharged tablet that has everything I could ever want. It brought my game up to a whole new level. The disconnect between the traditional drawing tablet and the monitor is pretty big, and to me, really limited what I could do in terms of intricate brush work, and now I don't have that problem!  It runs Illustrator and Lightroom and Photoshop at the same time!  I can take it anywhere, it does not need to be attached to my main computer, so I can draw in bed or out on the hiking trail (electronic plein aire, and it has a camera, you can take the scene with you!).

They are absolutely amazing, I cannot recommend it highly enough.

I've had to resubmit my W-9 several times over the 12 years I've been doing this, it's routine, they need them to be up-to-date so I suppose they just send out renewal notices periodically to make sure.

 

My graph is also at zero, flat-lined, when I can see from my earnings page that I am selling brand new stuff, so I say the graph is malfunctioning, especially seeing that everyone else's graph has flat-lined as well, seems pretty clear to me.  I wouldn't panic about sales of new stuff going to zero, based on that graph.

Just make the contact information LOOK generic like "lorem ipsum," the reviewers will glance at that and know there is no real information there.  If you make them look real in any way, the reviewers have to think it could be real.

For me it shows a massive drop-off in sales over the past 2 months, massive. How insanely discouraging since this is happening across all sites. Except Shutterstock, it's holding steady for me.
