Same here... It's very strange because 123 used to be a very steady agency
Me:
My sales from a portfolio of over 10,000 images have tanked to less than 25% of what they were. Rumors are 123 are being bought out soon. They operate a tiered earnings system.
My gut conclusion, although I don't want to believe it, is that they are reducing their costs by actively lowering everyone's payment level to make the company appear more profitable and more attractive to their potential buyers. Similar to the rumor of SS gearing their search to lower tier images to reduce payments, except in this case there would seem to be a much clearer reason for it.
On current earnings I will drop two, maybe three levels, was level 5.

My sales has kept steady, but looking at their traffic reveals a drop.

Their traffic ranking fell from 800 to 1215 in 6 months, and daily page views has dropped by 26%. Less visitors means less downloads. I think that may have something to do with it.
SvetlanaSF:
I've never had strong sales with 123rf but there has been a huge drop after March. I had an unusually high number of sales then, whole 10 sales both months! And now I've had 2 sales in April and May. That's back to the stats I had over 2 years ago, but I have since more than quadrupled my portfolio. Is it time to leave them? I feel like it's not worth my time uploading.
