I finally sold an image on Crestock

I have only five images there due to their being so picky, but today one finally sold. Of course it is onethat has been enjoying sales on other sites..still i am surprised.

I sold one this month too. I almost did not believe when I saw the email in my inbox.

Yeahhhh.... It's a honour to have approved images on Crestock and a big lottery to sell some!

I've sold already 8 (eight!) there! And I'm looking for my first payment in a ~2015 year...

Me too! I've sold 7 with them for a grand total of $3.50. They're incredibly tough, I've had about 50% rejection rate, but I don't mind. Keeps me on my toes.

Also, it seems that quite a few people get pissd off with their Judge Ross character and his best/worst image of the day. I find it quite interesting. I don't always agree with his best choice. But for the worst ... when you see some of the crap that people submit ...

Gives me hope

A second sale today, just 25c. Yes, a long way to go before US$100!!!

Hi all

In about 1 month and a half i had the chance to see approved 24 pics with Crestock.
I had the "incredible" amount of 6 downloads

The thing is: what really makes me furious is not the amount of rejections but mostly the reasons appointed.

I don't think they are so picky as people usually say.
I find in my small experience that they have a team that do not really work in the same standards, and most of my rejections do not have an acceptable reason.
I usually find the rejections at other sites like IS or SS acceptable despite some exaggerated drama about noise over SS, but at Crestock most of the times rejections do not make sense.
I also managed to have a best of the day picture, and guess what!
This picture is an OK one but just have sold two downloads on that particular day and a couple more downloads over the other sites.
My question is - Does the best of the day pic is about pretty pictures or about good stock photography?

I'm really disappointed with Crestock and I do not have the mood to upload anymore. Just two or three pics here and there. Maybe the close account day will be sooner than later.

I don't understand why you people bother with such a loser site. Wouldn't you rather be taking more photos that you could submit to sites that actually accept your images and make you money?

I guess you're completely right.
Image making is what we all like to do. There's no point to loose time with someone that do not want to sell our pictures. If only they sell some of my images, maybe I can think about uploading more.
