I've just had my first photos.com sale today but I opted in too late on the first day so it took about a week for my images to get into the search

Thanks! But I hope will be more!!! Wink

First .30 cents here, but same portfolio makes more than 100 $ on SS... That was strange!

How it is possible that on a "high earnings agency" like SXP I have ZERO for a three months, even views are very bad...?

My portfolio is big disproportion between SXP and other agenices especially if you look average of other contributors.

P.S.

New Canon!?

What a dream! Grin

Me too, a 8MP image was sold with subscription and not with PPD because of the bug.
If they don't fix this bug quickly I'm going to pull out my portfolio.

On August 20th, Stockxpert joined forces with Jupiterimages' pioneer subscription service Photos.com to help create Photos.com Plus (PDC+). This was the first subscription service anywhere to combine microstock content with traditional royalty-free photos. While PDC+ has only been running about 2 weeks, we have noticed some early positive signs for the contributors who are opted-in to subscriptions and extended licenses. Initially, it looks like SXP content is accounting for over half of all PDC+ downloads, which will quickly result in increased contributor earnings. We will be communicating more details about PDC+ earnings in the coming weeks.

With the positive direction of PDC+, we are excited to announce that Jupiterimages Unlimited Plus (JIU+) launched yesterday, September 3rd. Like PDC+, JIU+ combines microstock and traditional royalty-free images into a single subscription service. JIU+ follows the same subscription royalty model as SXP. For more information on the JIU+ offering, please visit http://www.stockxpert.com/lpages/contributor

We look forward to watching how these two new opportunities perform for contributors over the next few months, and will communicate more details on the progress for both PDC+ and JIU+ earnings in the coming weeks.

Remember, you must be opted-in to both Extended License and Subscriptions at Stockxpert.com to have your images included on the PDC+ and JIU+ offerings. These options are selected at the application process and can be maintained at My Account/Profile.

We will continually look for ways to create more value for our subscribers that can result in new revenue for our contributors. Thank you again for your continued patience, support, and feedback. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us at sxpteam@stockxpert.com.

Best regards,
The Stockxpert Team

SXP is accounting half of the PDC sales. Who's getting all of those, cos I only got 4 sub sales or something like that? Cheesy

I'm not happy with JI right now.

They knew they had the "size" bug where a good 50% of 8MP images are available as sub when they should not, but they still launched JIU+, breaching their contract agreement with us.

Now I have a bunch of my 8MP pictures available with subscription plan even in XL size, and I already lost a PPD opportunity with photos.com + where someone got one of my XL image at sub price.

I know they are working on correcting this ASAP but I agree it should have been fixed before launching JI+. I have a lot of images priced incorrectly also. And now on two sites to boot!

At least my newest images are now being priced correctly on photos.com. (I cannot find my latest yet on JI.)

They don't have the extended licence option like with Photos.com. Does this mean we are giving away macro uses at subs price again?

I've got several SXP images that are not on either site. Now that JIU+ has launched, perhaps they'll have more resources to throw at the incorrect size and missing image issues.

Same thing here. On 5 images 3 are on Photos.com. At Jupiter, I searched for "isolated sign" and got 10 pages of results. I didn't found the correct way to make the search I think

It seems like the photos that made it to photos.com are also on JIU+. Is that site completely sub, or do they have PPD?

They have another HUGE bug: all sizes including XL and XXL are available in the subscription program, so that's even worse than the Photos.com + bug.

You can see it here http://www.stockxpert.com/lpages/contributor/ I didn't see any available PPD there and the licence is the same as Photos.com

So looks like it's not a bug after all, from the SXP forum:

...
The JIUnlimited.com subscription includes all resolutions and there are no Pay Per Download options on JIUnlimited (JIU). JIU and SXP share the same royalty model of $.30/download.

As we explore new opportunities to leverage our SXP collection across our JupiterImages properties, we will be experimenting with new business models. We fully intend to evaluate all of these new models in the upcoming months to ensure that there is value for everyone -- both SXP contributor and JI customer. We fully intend to involve the SXP community more openly as part of this upcoming evaluation but in the short term, we need to see how our JI customers respond to our SXP collection.
...

All sizes including XL and XXL are available with sub and no PPD.
