I know everything has slowed down there a lot over the last 18 months, but I've gone from average 80 downloads per day to around 40. Today is 7? Also, my Stockperformer won't download any information for Shutterstock today, which makes me wonder if there are site problems?

Same here. SS is very slow today. Only half of average day in downloads for me

I had a lot of trouble opening my contributor page this morning, so with the stats not downloading to Stockperformer, I'm hoping there is a problem that has caused a delay and the numbers will suddenly jump.

If not, perhaps it's time to trow in the towel?

"Is there a problem on Shutterstock today? "

There is a problem everyday on Shutterstock*.

*(Problem of the day: I cannot upload vectors)

But in the 'New algorithm change on Shutterstock' thread you said:
Whatever there doing....PLEASE keep it up.

So which is it?

Very slow sales this week.

Shutterstock is stirring their algorithms to spread sales out among contributors.  The idea being to continue to take in money from sales, but not have to pay out as much, because no one contributor will make enough for a payout for a long time.

You know what, that makes no sense at all. They can't do anything with the money they owe except hold it. How do they gain from taking in money, but not paying out as much? Didn't they lower the payment threshold.
