I submitted some drawings at Dreamstime and found the submit button replaced with some odd phrases. Made me giggle.

Yeah, sales have been disappointing. Their similars policy is ridiculous.

I had a great run with DT, and then, like other sites, there was a stair step decline to a more than 50% reduction in royalty payments.  I still upload photos there, but DT is the last site I upload to with minimal excitement.  I don't sell video there and I have built about 1100 video assets in 12 months.  To be fair, DT is still above the other sites I just cut ties with (Most Photos, Stockfresh, GL), but they are still declining for me month over month on declining volume.  I am also opted out of EL's but I rarely got those anyway.

I would love for them to change a few things. With the problems forming over at Pond5 someone has a real chance to take video share if they shape their program correctly. Funny, I just had all 120 of my last video batch rejected at P5, and have sold three of those videos already elsewhere in a few weeks. But the $20 or so I got could have been more if they sold on P5.

Agree. P5 is making some serious mistakes.

Seems I am always a day late and a dollar short.  I just uploaded my first batch to P5 about a week ago.  And yeah, I enjoy DT and their sense of humor.  If only I could make a bit more money there all would be awesome.   :-\
