After rejecting 64 pictures they send me congratulation message (it must be a bug in their software):
EVALUATION MESSAGE
Good pictures. Keep uploading! Best regards, Crestock
Best regards,
*The Crestock Team*

I have just been sent the same message. But the whole situation seems to be slightly different here. They rejected only 3 out of 6... :-)
I really do not know why I work with them. Only about six sales... But in fact I use them to select images I will send to istock. Because they are so picky, the images which will get past their reviewers are rarely rejected at istock...

trouble is, Because they are so picky,, many that they reject would be accepted by IS and SS

Let's get it right, guys. Acceptance rate means nothing: it's sales that matter, and in this regard Crestock is lacking in both quantity and quality.
Bottom line: Until you have a proven track record it will not pay to upload to Crestock, and even then the payoff will be marginal.

Sharply is right about this. I made close to $350 last month in microstock, but only 25 cents from Crestock. For my portfolio size/strength, it isn't worthwhile for me. Maybe some day when I am more advanced, and Crestock has more sales (and reasonable commissions), we can try again. Until then, there is no point.

Yes CT I am lucky if I get $ 1 a month there.....
Did you see that ? (taken from their frontpage)
Get $5 for every image featured as a Daily Free Image
Do you have images in your Crestock portfolio that you'd like to see presented as our Daily Free Image? Being featured with a free image is a good way of promoting your portfolio to our growing list of image buyers subscribing to the Daily Free Image RSS feed.
Just send us an email with your chosen image IDs, create a collection with the images you'd like to present or just let us select suitable images from your portfolio if you prefer.
We reserve the right to choose among the images contributed, but for every image used we will credit the contributor's account with $5. It's that simple!

Well, I know about SS - they accept about 90% of what I submit, but I am in doubt about IS - they accept very little of my pictures. I usually first submit to SS, the accepted images are submitted to DT then. Images accepted at both SS and DT are uploaded to CRST and finally those accepted at all three agencies I send to IS.
