Title: Talk about micro payments
Post by: ptlee on September 11, 2007, 07:44

Check out the number of downloads vs the total earnings for a particular image on my downloads page. 

Perhaps I hold the record for the most number of downloads, and at dirt cheap prices.  ::)

I'm not laughing though, not sure what to make of it  :-\

I'd say your earnings per download are a bit  ;D low!

In all seriousness, I haven't seen that happening (yet) on my stats.  Good luck getting that resolved!

Yeah, I hope they solve it. I'm thinking it's a glitch on the earnings column  ;D

I'd be really happy even at 25c per download. Seriously, I'm not so greedy, heh  ;)

I've got the same thing at the moment.  Apparently I've just sold my 214th million image at Dreamstime.

Now, where did I park my Maserati Quatroporte........?

... and with that number of views, each viewer it bought it over 25 million times.

What was it a picture of, for heaven's sake? Gonna let us in on the secret?

Looks like you have -1 downloads (cast to an unsigned 32 bit integer). Sorry for the programmer talk, but the bug will be simple enough for them to fix.

P.S. How it got to -1 however, is another matter altogether...
