I think you need to wait after the video is proceed and then you can edit and add description, keywords etc.

Well,

I think SS and the one who stole the photo think if he retrace it and make it vector it will be his own illustration. He's so stupid that he can't even change some colors and shapes.

Hello Piotr,

I hope that you will accept feedback.

I know your feeling... opening your own stock photo market place and earning millions BUT... It's not as easy as you think.. It's not about buying a domain name and installing a template.

I am saying that because 10 years ago I wanted to make my own marktletplace I called it fotomina and I spent like $4000 buying a stupid code for my website.

Before you start, you need to ask yourself:
- What makes your website special ? Why should someone leave shutterstock or any other marketplace and buy from you ? why sould I -as an artist- contribute my photos to your website?

To be "special" you need:
- A special domain name.
- A special script code (your own development temlam)
- A security team for security issues
- Licensing team and lawyers
- Professional reviewers
- SEO team
- You need to spend a lot of money bying ads, banners, Google Adwords, etc
- You need a very expressive hosting space and speed/bandwidth.

I lost my money/website longtime ago so I don't want you to live my experience.

Thanks
Ben

Seems like Dreamstime is really working out for you

Well, that depends entirely on when the last withdrawal was...
Hhhh yes this is not really as you think. I didn't withdraw for a longtime however what I made on videohive is like 3 months only :)

But I love checking each site one by one. It's part of my morning routine. A nice cup of coffee, some news, and checking up to 20 sites to see what I earned while I slept. (not sarcasm, I truly do enjoy the process).

Seeing it all at once is too easy.  ;)

Not to mention giving out login details here and there, left and right, isn't something I take lightly.
Yes I think you are right :)

Being exclusive is not always a good choise try yo upload some footages as non exclusive and see the difference. If you want to earn more just make more creative special footage that buyers need.

Hi everyone,

I found an app that may be useful for you guys. So instead of checking you earning everyday in every website. Just install this app on your phone and see all your earning.

The app name is microstockr.

PS: I don't know the app programmer and I just payed for it :)

Adobe Stock / Re: Adobe Upload Requirements Vector Stock
« on: December 06, 2017, 00:21 »
Hi,

The thing they ask for high JPG images because some buyer just buy the jpg and it needs to be High-res. Some other website do not ask for such requirement we just need to follow the rules.

for the resizing maybe you can make in action in Photoshop to save all your pictures the same way.

I hope this will help.

Hi Again,

Well I found out today that they will accept non-vector illustrations. That is a plus for me, so I will upload and see how it goes...

You are welcome karensuki.

No they fooled us. It's 5$ and 0.5$ for the smallest size. That's for an extended license. But I checked them the last time begin of April when I uploaded 10. Maybe they repaired that. I can't tell any more and their site doesn't work under FF (CSS not loading), plus I can't even log in also. No time now but I will re-check these guys later. My advice for now would be to stay away till their site works properly and their policies are fixed. Their promise of 10$ certainly wasn't kept and if it's true, I'll kill them for sure.

Payout start from 10$ paypal and moneybookers, FlemishDreams you don't have to kill us that's true.

ROTFL.  Grin There is no money in Africa. Even here in SE Asia with a much higher standard of living, nobody buys stock. Here they get all their stuffs from pirate sites or torrents. The market is the US, not Patagonia,  Elbonia nor Timbuktu. You must be kidding, I'm sorry.

No comment .. We will try..

Our buyers
We are in Finland

I am sorry for misspelling.

Why don't you hire a native English writer? English is my 3d language but I do have a spellchecker. 

Okay we will hire some English writers. But at least with my very bad English I am able to communicate with people.

He doesn't have money to hire a writer. It doesn't cost any real money to start a joke website. Anybody can start one, them having a website means nothing.

I can come up with a micro site in a week with my developer friend working with me. It would look as good as any of the top players. But the difficult thing is to run the website, not to come up with it.

If I do create a website would you then instantly take it serious and advertise it on this forum as a newcomer? It is that easy really

WOW, You are genius !!

Fotomina anounced 10$ and then when my 10 shots got online, it suddenly was 5$, 2.5$ for me at full size and EL. I'm sorry but I hate pla

We are not liars Flemish we announced 10$ for the payout not for the price of the picture. Instead of saying that you can give us some idea in this thread to make Fotomina photographer friendly http://www.microstockgroup.com/new-sites-general/what-kind-of-features-you%27d-like-to-see-in-fotomina/

These guys are a real joke. The more I read, the more I laugh! You must be one of them to say you are going to submit and expect any real results!
I am sure fotomina has a grand total of 3 visitors a day!

Sorry to disappoint the skeptics but I'm just a newbie struggling with a tiny portfolio...

I decided to take the plunge and give them a look see...

The first thing that I can report is that their uploading system is annoying. One image at a time as well as having to fill in the title and description before upload. It only reads the metadata for the keywords.


Again, we are developping a new script and we will have bulk upload ..

This is the next version of Fotomina:

For the moment it's 50%. Next, we are studying a new commission based on number of sales made.

How are your sales doing
Not yes, we are building a strong library of royalty free images and then we will start our marketing plan..

Our buyer will be from international country, we are studding a new ways to sell to people without paypal and online payment if they don't have. Actually we will focus on Africa and Arabic countries..

Quote

Not to worry, I am not here to give you a big interrogation.   Just want to know if there is a good incentive to submit some images to you.
Please feel free to post any question...
