So when there was no "AI Images" upload type yet, 123RF accepted AI Images as photos (last year)

I had over 1000 images accepted with all needed keywords and titles, marking them as AI.

They were selling ok, but, last month sales dropped 90% and Images were just deleted, not moved to AI images, deleted.

1000+ approved images removed from site without even saying anything, I have no words.

In any case, you are not alone... My sales also dropped dramatically (currently minus 86%) and I also lost pictures.

123rf in the last few months:
I always got AI images through well before - a total of 5,500 accepted, 450 rejected.

Then in January, around 3,500 AI images were rejected in one go - I contacted support and only received a general reply.
I then tried again to find out why everything had suddenly been rejected.

Result: Support simply stopped answering me (no I wasn't rude) and since January there are 1476 AI images and 867 photos in the queue - no more reviews are taking place.
And since my first email to support, there has also been the slump in sales described above.

In summary, 123rf is no longer trustworthy for me at all since the beginning of 2024 and apparently no longer interested in material.

For me, they are now on a par with Canva (100% instant rejections) - WireStock (I'm supposed to pay for uploading?) - YayImages (no more invoices for 6 months) in the list of most untrustworthy agencies

Have a sunny day@all

Good news if they want to clean their collection. AI image is not a photo. As a customer, I would be please not to get AI images in download, described as true photographies. It's fake, and lying.

A bit off topic, but on the right have several agencies which have no place in the list.
Like Clipdealer which do not pay to the contributors!
