Getting out of DT has always been a royal pain. Besides the 6 month lock-in, there's no way to disable multiple files. Does anyone know of something like a Greasemonkey script that will disable everything?

UPDATE: I'm doing it with iMacros.

I thought they had some kind of formula where you could only disable a certain percentage at one time. Maybe it has changed since I disabled all of mine. Here's a thread where we talked about it 3 years ago...

Ron said it was 30% of your portfolio, that sounds like what I remember. Hopefully they got rid of that silly rule.

The rule is still there but it depends on how old the images are. I haven't uploaded in over a year so I could disable 100%. Which I just did.

Run a macro - this should still work:

I used iMacros to record one complete select/disable/back cycle, ran it in looping mode and it took care of all of them.

Ok makes sense.

Also seems like it is physically impossible to bypass the pointless 6 month wait time. After lengthy back and forths with support I ended up changing all my titles, keywords and descriptions to criticism of DT and adverts for other stock sites and linking them to the images to show how I should be banned. They didn't care... the images stayed online like that for the next 6 months.

just shows how they are running on empty and don't watch their own site. This is ghost staff fools watching the last money come in before closing.

i would just leave it there, since obviously they don't sell.. just sitting there gathering virtual dust.
the only ones you should be concerned about would be those which you made exclusive..
as i assume you want to submit them to other sites.

i don't know how many sites i still have an account with. when i started donkey years ago with finding leaf's site here, i submitted to literally every sites. but after months , years,.. i realised only ss is were the only two worth uploading, ..

a year ago, i think, can't remember, .. i had time to kill, so i went back to see those old sites,
they still have about 20 cents to 20 dollars earnings. most of them still waiting for reaching the
cash-out limit of much more than the present ss of 35 bucks.

things like that, makes me appreciate ss, even when at times , they become anal .
