Author Topic: DP got picky? (Read 3717 times)

Is it just me or DP got REALLY picky over some time now? Firstly it was low commercial value, and now I get tones of rejections based on "too many / similar" reason. Even though these are quite different photos and SS / FT accepts the whole batch. I mean DP isn't that good to be this kind of picky, is it...? What do you think? Anyone still uploading there?

What do I think? I think I'm sick of these "xxx agency won't accept my photos" whining.

As you can see in my graph, it dose not worth uploading pictures anymore on Dreamstime...

They paid up front for all the people who would sell out for a 25c prepaid. That was a collection of the biggest artists and desperate people. DP then changed all the rules, sold us under the table and cheated us through the back door. But some people stayed, because they are so desperate to work for the crooks.

That's why DP doesn't need more photos. They have enough and enough artists who will take any minimum slave wage working for them.

Rejected by DP is a compliment and a way to tell you, they aren't worth working for.

Ah, a good one, sadly I guess you're right. ;/

To echo what other people have said, if you are uploading to DP their inspection standards are the least of your problems.

Yup, I stopped with Dreamstime some time ago. Not only the sales but also what pissed me off was their "no sales on the photo = going to free or you click it wont" policy.
-_-

Nah, I'm not whining, just wondering. I mean SS might be picky (even though lately they're just opposite), IS might be picky, but honestly DP is a kind of strange...

Can you elaborate? How did they cheated? I mean I know they don't pay much but it doesn't seem way less than other sites.

Please do a search on this site. The list has gotten too long now. It would take a book to give you whole history of what depositphotos has been up to from day one.

Yes, I had the same rejection reason this month and also those images were accepted by all others, even DT.
I have ~40 in my earnings and I will not miss them once I make payout. That will take a while with these sub downloads.

Deposhitphotos is the worst they are proven cheaters and liars, no sympathy for anyone still uploading there and whining about rejections.
