Hi Mat

I have 2666 eligible assets but why I can't see what are those

If I can't see those eligible assets I don't want to nominate anything.

Those can be files that earn me much more then 5$ weekly, not yearly so...

Let us see and choose them first, before nomination.

Thanks for the comments @PanicAttack. You can see the files available for nomination right now. It will get even easier to see them in a few hours <knock on wood>.

To see them now, scroll through your pages in the Dashboard section. You'll see a small button in the lower right corner of the preview file that says "nominate." This is your toggle switch if you want to nominate (or un-nominate) individual files one by one.

Later today, there will be a filter in place in the dashboard where you can view only your eligible files which will simplify this process.

You brought up a very important point, we do not want, nor will we accept your best selling assets. No images with more than 4 downloads in the past 12 months are eligible.

Keep the questions coming,

Mat Hayward

Thank you Mat for the informations.

And agree with user hellou.

Stay safe good people!

A lot of the images Adobe picked from my port are regular sellers on other sites that earn me more in 12 months than the 5$ Adobe is offering. No one is going to pay for an image on one site that he can get for free on other sites. Another problem I see is similar-topic images. If I select one image of a certain topic that isn't doing too well for me, but have another in my port that sells regularly, people might go for the free alternative and I will miss out on sales.

I'll take a closer look once the filter for nominated images is up, because right now it's really a hassle to go through pages and pages of images to find the nominated ones. Not sue what to do with this yet. Once I filter out all my regular sellers from other sites and also images of a similar topic as my regular sellers, there probably won't be many images left.

I took a quick look and it appears that photographs downloaded between 1 and 3 times are eligible - is that correct? (I have one that was downloaded 4x but has the nominate button too - guess it may've been downloaded recently).

How does nominating our images for this collection effect the required 150 downloads needed for the year to qualify for the free Adobe CC subscription?

I've had quite a few $3-4 downloads lately and one for $23 last month, so I'm on the fence, but it's nice that you've opened this up as it's an interesting option. May was a really good month for me Adobe, my best ever in fact, despite having not uploaded in months due to an unfortunate reaction to the Covid vaccine which has left me with terrible vertigo. Hoping with PT it will go away but it will probably take several months. So this is a more attractive offer than it would normally be.

I have seen files in my port with 20 downloads that are eligible. My guess is it is probably a "download rate" thing. You asked several great questions btw!

Mat,

How does this affect the working out for the free Adobe subscription offer based on downloads?

Cheers

This doesn't have an impact on the Creative Cloud bonus program. Downloads in Free will not count toward your sales statistics.

As many of you know, last year Adobe Stock launched a free collection to drive traffic to the marketplace. The initial collection was limited to participation from a very small number of Adobe Stock Contributors. We were pleased with the results: traffic did increase and many visitors who initially came for free content converted to paying customers, resulting in added revenue for the larger Contributor community.   

It�s now time to refresh and expand the program. For a limited time starting on June 7, many of you will see a banner in the dashboard section of the Adobe Stock Contributor portal. The banner gives you the opportunity to nominate qualified photos from your portfolio. You can nominate all eligible files (photos only at this time), or you can go through the Dashboard and nominate individual files. Please note that your best-selling images are exempt from this program. We will not be accepting any images that received more than 4 downloads in the past 12 months.   

You have until June 23 to nominate any or all your eligible files. After that, the banner will go away, and our moderation team will quickly review the submissions.   

A big difference between the Adobe Stock free collection and other sites offering content for free is that we are paying Contributors up front for participation. For every file approved for the free collection, we are paying a one-time rate of $5 (If paid in USD currently. Otherwise, 5 credits in your currency) . This payment is for 12 months of non-exclusive use in the free collection. After the 12 months are up, the files will automatically be returned into your paid collection. 
Please see the FAQ for more details, and let me know if you have any additional questions not covered there.

Hello Matt, how are you?, I'm trying to agree with the addendum but it's not working. only works from tomorrow?

Thanks

Hi Mat, once approved, will my newly free images be sold under my name (that means will the customer see my contributor name?) and might these free ones help promote my paid portfolio somehow?

Mat,

I see in the terms it says the photos are sold under a commercial licence. What does this mean? How does it compare to standard, enhanced, extended licences?

Cheers

Try a different browser. I've seen a few reports of this and the browser switch seems to do the trick in most cases. Sorry about the hassle.

Yes i can see individual files now. Thanks Mat for answer.

Yes, your name is a clickable link that will take customers to your paid portfolio.
