On my Alamy dashboard it says "A new contributor contract comes into force from September 15th, 2025. ", but when I click on the link all I get is a 500: Internal Sercer Error.

Anyone has any information on this? Can we expect yet another cut in payment?

I was getting that error yesterday - I think it was a glitch.

Try logging out and then back in, that worked for me...

I closed my Alamy account a few years ago.

I also objected to the takeover by yayimages at panthermedia. As a result, my panthermedia account is also closed and the images are deleted, which was confirmed to me in a personal e-mail from panthermedia.

Today I discovered that my images are still for sale at Alamy. Under the contributor name "Panther Media Group". There are 8.1 million images under this contributor  name.

Now I ask myself: Why are the images still there? And where does the money go that is still being earned with my images, for example?

Anybody else concerned?

I hope you've asked PantherMedia to explain.

I had a similar problem a few years back when I closed my Yay images/Zoonar accounts only to find them still on sale at Alamy.

Alamy refused to do anything insisting I contacted Yay/Zoonar.  Eventually they were taken down but they all claimed no sales had been registered. 

Alamy were zero help.  :(

I did so. No answer!
