I just sold 2 EL's on Fotolia, and got $3,92 for each image! Woooo!!! Isn't that cool!

My images will be printed in hundreds of thousands of copies, all for several $
What a crap

Holy Bat Shite Batman !!!!!! .... LOL sounds like you need to go in there and adjust a bunch of EL prices pronto. but don't feel bad .. I had the same thing happen awhile back on some of the older images I submitted way back in the day. I was so irritated at myself.

Instead of going one by one
you can e-mail support and ask them to change EL prices an all your images.
They will do it for you

Now you're good for future sales.

It's not smart to allow EL pricing below $40 or $50. It shouldn't even be possible to offer it that low...
No idea what the plan was behind that.

Wow, happy I never go further with them FT=shame

I did not know the extended license prices drop over time. I wrote support asking for the prices to be raised back to 50 credits. I started adjusting them one at a time... it would of been quite time consuming. Glad I'm part of this forum. Thanks

Actually if you go further with them you can sell ELs for 200 credits giving you over 70$ per EL which is the most I get from any site.

The biggest I've had at IS was a 250 credit EL which netted me $135. Amounts vary as the per-credit price varies, and not all ELs are 250 credits...YMMV

Nice, I don't think that I have ever reached 50$ from an EL sale at IS.

good you set the prices up. I have all my extended license prices at the highest amount. it is very nice to get those bonus' from time to time

borg · « **Reply #13 on:** February 05, 2010, 06:57 »

Yea but that mean start before 2005 and wait 4 or 5 years to reach a higher canister. Lower canister do get absolutely nothing for their pictures. Only you, with high RPM gauge get something at Fotolia.

Back when I was with them, I couldn't change any prices. Got 1-2-3-4-5-6 credits and at the end 60% of subs... 20 credits for a extended which I was getting around 6$

ouchie · « **Reply #15 on:** February 05, 2010, 09:48 »

i went into edit data for a pic and canot change the price.

it gives me a message, price is too high.

it is set at 20$.

BTW:i sold my first ever el last month and got $6.00 ~~~ this month they took it away due to c/c not cleared!

Anyway i guess being new im capped at $20 sale price for el?

the price table, i saw that vector EL is
80 credits. (I am a bronze).

how this works. i have written to support,

this is only available to those members with 100 dl+, on the pager where you submit the image info.

Also subscription sales do not count one-for-one towards the 100 DL mark. Sub sales only count 1 for every 4 sales ...

OK, thanks for the explanation......I have some more DL's to go:)

steheap · « **Reply #24 on:** February 25, 2010, 11:46 »

I just sold my first EL for 20 credits and got $6 something, but I noticed that current uploads are automatically defaulted to 50 credits for an EL. Did anyone find any way to change all the previous uploads from 20 to 50 besides going to each file in turn and modifying the field?
