Just had a 0.12 USD sale today, is that the new norm or has this always been around?

Are you at a 30% royalty rate? If so, it's probably a freebie or sale that's paid to you at the minimum per credit value of 40 cents. This minimum credit value for the purpose of calculating royalties is ages old and was a way to ensure contributors got a minimum even if they were heavily discounting for large buyers.

I left 123rf a year or so ago, so there may be something new I'm not aware of.

Ah thanks, yes that might be it then. Never saw these in the last couple of years so thought they'd change something.

After much wasted time there I finally did the same on last week, and I won't look back. That site is dead to me now.

Seems like ice has shifted, just noticed that my images submitted three days ago has been approved already.

It is only a matter of time before the .15 and .21 sales start trickling in.

Any news on that?

I had a backlog of 2-300 from November which have cleared in the last couple of weeks.

I have uploaded another batch of 50. Now when I check I see i have 35,674 downloads (yeah right)
10 accepted (thats 3500 downloads per file!)
44245 pending (as if)
and total earning ZERO

Their database is totally screwed

When I get to $50 I'll cash it in and delete everything (if I can find it)

I can't get to the first page to process my ftp uploads. It keeps giving me the agreement with no accept button. Anyone else?

mj007 · « **Reply #36 on:** February 15, 2019, 14:54 »

It seems some snowflake at 123 forgot to put the I accept button on that page. I hear blue hair is in style this year also.

Noedelhap · « **Reply #37 on:** February 27, 2019, 05:31 »

My footage was uploaded in October, it's still pending.

What a joke of an agency. Lower commissions and they don't even work hard for their money.

Hannafate · « **Reply #38 on:** March 03, 2019, 11:18 »

123 has always been slow to review. I started routinely sending them a message whenever I uploaded, so things would get reviewed. Now that has stopped working.

Time to bail, I think.

Hi all!
I was looking for 123RF information and I see that I found it. I have 300 images pending revision since January, after the first 16 approved and another 300 pending upload (as long as I do not hear from the agency). They do not respond to my emails. I thought I was expecting too much but I see that you have been doing it for months ... After reading your comments I think I'm going to delete everything in this agency and forget about it ...
Regards!

I'm pretty sure 123RF is dead in the water. I also signed up last year and uploaded a handful of images through their pathetic admin page that won't let you edit meta unless you install a Flash plugin. This alone should put them out of business. After no feedback for a month i decided to cancel my account with them but even that is almost impossible. So i just removed all my images and then let it fade into oblivion. I wish i'd read the forums before signing up.

I wish I've found this topic a bit earlier

I have a few hundred images on Shutterstock, and I'm just starting to upload images to other agencies. I also uploaded my first 10 to 123RF about a week ago, but now that I've read through this topic I won't wait for them...just deleted my images and I asked for my account to be deleted.

Thanks, guys

Yeah, the official process is that you submit your content, and they review them when you get fed up of waiting for several months and email them to complain.

rinderart · « **Reply #44 on:** July 31, 2019, 23:05 »

Something Is really fishy at 123. sent Many Notes asking whats up or Is it Over and Just Get Lip service. uploads Just sit there. Im afraid It's goodbye for another site thats was at Best worth Uploading to. Sad. Another One Bites the dust.

angelawaye · « **Reply #45 on:** August 01, 2019, 21:53 »

Even though they are not reviewing items for some reason, 123 still performs the same (or better) then AS so I hope they don't leave.

rinderart · « **Reply #46 on:** August 01, 2019, 22:22 »

WOW....are you Lucky or what. I wrote them a Long Letter last Night. Been with them since day one. No response.my second letter.

I hear a fat lady........
