Selections are happening. I nominated seven images (big total, I know), and one was selected two weeks ago.

Dumc · « **Reply #77 on:** June 30, 2022, 03:52 »

It seems I got 4 selected so far, I got 58 total in free section, 54 from last year and 4 from this batch.

Well, that was quick

not a lot for first batch, but better than nothing.

Dumc · « **Reply #79 on:** June 30, 2022, 05:56 »

Ok, I just got money for 34 assets

Just received a payment for 58 images.

Some new images to the free collection are showing as "Free" while others show "Free" + In Review. Not sure if this means another payment maybe due if the ones in review are also accepted.

Had a number of photos accepted which is nice. The number of photos I have in the 'free' collection is more than the money credited. Is this because some of the photos from last year haven't dropped out of the collection as yet because a full year isn't up for them?

Thanks Mat. Can we expect more waves of approvals for the Free section ?

Jaggy · « **Reply #84 on:** June 30, 2022, 11:31 »

Thanks Mat. That was very helpful.

kevinbrine · « **Reply #85 on:** June 30, 2022, 12:47 »

Great stuff. Thanks Mat.

I think it's live now, I got the money I can't account for with downloads.

wollwerth · « **Reply #88 on:** June 30, 2022, 13:27 »

Had about 150 accepted today. That was a nice surprise for the day.

How is this free photos good for us and Adobe's business? Just curious how it can increase overall revenue for Adobe and us contributors. I have a bunch of photos approved already.

I can't say for sure whether more photos will be approved this year or not.

The process of removing the content previously in the Free collection that was either not approved again this year, or not nominated is now complete. The easiest way to see the selected files is to view your public facing portfolio page and filter by Free.

As mentioned, you'll soon receive an email that confirms the number of files that were accepted and the payment amount you received.

Thanks everyone!

Mat Hayward

What I would be very interested in, Mat: did you offer pictures for the free selection yourself?

52 selected so far.

cobalt · « **Reply #94 on:** July 01, 2022, 00:27 »

From 36 nominated files…they took 1…can‘t even see the five dollars yet?

I have to say I am a bit confused, why suggest so many files?

Well, guess I am doomed to make money with the other files.

Artist · « **Reply #95 on:** July 01, 2022, 00:41 »

I never nominated any files... how does it works?
Like if I nominate 100 files will they take all 100 or will they choose from the nomination?

I nominated all possible files (about 451), 34 were selected, last year it was 54 from about 630

cobalt · « **Reply #98 on:** July 01, 2022, 02:31 »

Oh, ok, so they are very selective, didn‘t realize that. Thank you for the info.

I received an email that says:

Quote

You have assets accepted for the free collection

Dear Xxxx,

We are sending this email to let you know that we’ve accepted 100 asset(s) you nominated for the Adobe Stock free collection.

Congratulations! We’ve added an upfront payment of £500 to your overall earnings balance.* (Please note, that there won't be an itemized entry for the free assets.)

Questions?
Reach out to our support team.

Regards,
The Adobe Stock team

* Please note: The numbers in this email are approximate; check your earnings statistics for exact numbers.

Please note that "100 asset(s)" and "£500" are fictitious because I do not wish to publish my real data, however the proportion is correct.

I believe there are a couple of problems here:

1) £500 should read $500 (ok, this is just a typo);

2) Some of us - depending on geographic location - are being shortchanged (again), as the actual amount paid for each photo (worth $5) is £3.75, while at the current exchange rate it should be about £4.14. A 10% difference!
