We owe every once of Pond5's success to our sellers, absolutely. It's thanks to the thousands of artists (and each of you!) who provide our marketplace with fantastic material that we are able to offer what we can today. Please don't think that Pond5 doesn't realize that. Everyone in this company that I've ever talked to feels the same way, "We owe it all to the artists."
That's why be bill ourselves as an artist friendly marketplace.
Pond5 has one of the largest collections of stock media on the Internet. Now, we also hold THE largest collection of easily accessible public domain content as well. Pond5 pays its artists the highest percentage in the industry, no one else has a 50/50 split. (If I'm wrong about that, please do correct me.) If we're doing well, it's because our artists are doing well. It's always been that way, and it always will be.
Yes, I like Pond5 a lot because of 50/50 split. I want Pond5 to keep up with the Shutterstock because it's good for us contributors.
Keep up the positive vibes and productivity everyone. We all create and are part of the same community. The SS planted troll does not recognize a successful business model and marketplace when it sees one. But I suspect it is just here to ruffle feathers and disturb the peace. Trolls are brave and bold with internet anonymity--no matter how much it cries and complains the fact is that all these marketplaces make us money and showcase our work.

Topic title: Pond5 sales down in January. Shutterstock sales surpassed it for the first time
3 posts means nothing. I am here all the time reading as it is a great resource but was compelled to sign up just to call you out troll.

"Oh well...30,000 square feet swanky office in posh NY hood had priority than actually selling our media files. Employing VP executives prior to folks who will actually pick up phones when buyers battle time zone .... hmmmm"
Maybe this news will make you go away and stay away.
Congrats P5! Keep moving and growing.

So SSContributor (who sound like an SS hired troll, btw) is whining and complaining because his sales are down?> Maybe try and improve your work or try another career if this is not working for you. And, even more amazing, is that SSContributor wants a cut of the financing that a company receives. Explain to us why you feel like you deserve a cut of financing and how how much would be satisfactory for you?
"These guys had been playing around last 8 years, yet same issues: uploading nightmares, slow reviews, low quality files, keywords disaster, crap amateurish advertising, staff constantly on holiday!!! "
So why do you contribute to Pond5? How do you know about their holidays? Doesn;t everyone go on holidays? Or do they need your permission? I smell a troll.
