[Small sample here]

I see large increase (and BTW, I did not have any per picture sale on SS for approx. 1 months with about 300 photos). That looks like the per picture sales migrated to BigStock. Yet too small sample here to judge. I surely hope it is just fluke in my stats.

I've noticed an increase since the site design, too. 9 downloads in the last 2 days...prior to that, nothing for a couple of months.

Since the site redesign, my sales have been up about 20% vs. the weeks leading up to the change.

But suddenly today I'm seeing an explosion of sales. Not sure if it's just one buyer who likes my style and is buying a bunch (13 sales in the past hour or so), or if BigStock launched a big promotional push this morning.

Whatever it is, keep it up BigStock!

Proof that they are buying yours now and not mine.

Best selling image there for me, has 42 views and two sales, in two years. I think it's another case of time to pull the plug. It's not the right place for them to waste space hosting my images nor me to be uploading. Minimum sales are 50c and most have been $1, nice fair commissions.

I do like the new look of the site and I can find things easier. It may be the same layout with easier graphics, plus it's clean and functional.

In case that's a long answer... No Increase for me.

Still average sales for me on portfolio on 595 images with moderate uploading ...

I have noticed a significant increase this month and I saw a full page advert in a design magazine, so hopefully shutterstock are fully backing BigStock and it has a good future. I feel much more motivated to upload there now.
