I wrote to Canva about this.  They replied immediately saying that 'there is functionality in your Canva Creator account to register with Trolley'.  Well I've spent hours looking at my account and for the life of me I cannot find any reference to Trolley and certainly no 'functionality to register'.

Anyone had any success with this?

Any more news on this?  I filled out my tax form which has been reviewed and accepted.  But I've done nothing about registering with trolley.  Do I really have to?

I don't often look at 123RF these days given the low volume of sales.  But I did check my account balance today and was surprised to see a message that 123RF now accepts PNG files.

I couldn't find any explanation on the web site, and using search filters I couldn't see any options for selecting PNG unlike Adobe which has transparent backgrounds as an option.

Is this something new and early days for 123RF?  Does anyone have any experience of PNG files there?

Same here! applies and Exports UP but earning down down down

Yep, same here.  Very disappointing.

Photoshop file info function keeps all keywords in the order you input.  I used to use Bridge for Metadata but got fed up with Bridge sorting everything alphabetically which then made it a pain to upload to Adobe.  Now I use the file info function in photoshop, which includes the ability to save a template which can be applied to all photos in a series.  Easy.

Yep my income number has also been revised upwards, now roughly in line with the sales numbers.

It remains to be seen whether this was just an error, or whether we were being screwed and Canva reversed that decision in response to all the backlash.

105 accepted so a nice bonus of $525.  Thank you very much Matt and Adobe.

It looks like Feb earnings are posted, and although applies were up 24% and exports were up 18% actual $ earnings were only up .57% and total $ earnings actually went down because I had more individual sales in January (which gives you an idea of how small the Elements earning increase was since individual sales are in the single digits these months.)

So, an awful lot of sales for not much $ for us and basically earnings continue to fall despite the customers getting fat at the all you can eat buffet.

Does anyone know what "applies" and "exports" really mean? Danny?

My sales were also shown as up about 24% in February, but unfortunately my total earnings for the month were down about 1%.  The money divided into total sales produces pay per download as a very small number, about $0.006 per sale.

I like Canva, but it sure feels and looks like we are being screwed.

When I first started in Microstock in 2007 I had a Nikon D50 a widely praised camera at that time.  Actually it was rubbish.  I upgraded to the D60, an amazing 12MP.  Again the results were poor (looking back with years of experience).

Everyone at iStock wanted to produce XXXL sizes and the nly way of doing that was via the Canon 5Dii.  So I sold all my Nikon gear and bought the 5Dii and a selection of lenses.  It was good, but man was it heavy.

Then a few years ago I went for lighter mirrorless.  I chose the Fuji X-T2 and a couple of lenses.  Wonderful camera, and the leses are so sharp it's incredible.  Quality of images is exceptional, shooting RAW and processing in Fuji's own RAW software.

This camera and two lenses are exceptionally good and so light I can take them everywhere.  Never felt the need to upgrade again once I'd switched to my Fuji X-T2.

Yeah, but it is not comfortable. I mean there is no option to copy paste metadata to multiple images, change order of keywords etc..

If you are doing a series you can keyword the first file using file info in Photoshop then save the info as a template which you can then apply to all the other images in the series.

Are Adobe still planning "big things" for their png collection or have they shifted their attention/ resources away to AI now (i.e. doing away with us)? We were told to wait and see and that we wouldn't be disappointed with what they had in mind/ the level of promotion. Haven�t seen much yet.

PNG files are selling but as you say there doesn't appear to have been any announcement or marketing to customers by Adobe.  Shame and disappointing for those of us who have made the effort to upload.  Adobe did say they might have to wait to achieve 'critical mass' in search results - that might take a long time given that the majority of contributors do not have an existing PNG file collection.

Some very nice pictures here at Adobe...

Notice a few things: first all of these pictures shout typical Amsterdam, second they are taken in bright light during Spring and summer when there are flowers and leaves on the trees, third they are processed to vibrant colors.  Any buyer would be happy to pay money for these pictures.
