Title: My First "Premium Subscription" Sale - How Dissappointing!
Post by: GeoPappas on July 17, 2009, 14:15
I just had my first Premium Subscription sale from FT.

It was an XLarge image (12 MP) for which I received the whole sum of...

drum roll please...

$0.36!

Previous to the new "Premium" Subscription, I normally made $1.92 from that size sale.

What a disappointment!

wow, that must hurt like constipation ! so sorry to hear this.

it's ridiculous that FT even allows XL to sell for 36 cts. 

at least give us the opt out choice.

is this what the new CEOs from IS are bringing to FT ?

I just had my first Premium Subscription sale too: 0.35 for a vector illustration.  Now if the number of sales makes up for the low prices...  I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

That's still 1 cent more than Dreamstime.  8)

Thats weird, I though they give you 3 times as much for a vector illustration. ???

Sorry, my bad.  The detailed sales information says it was Subscription XXL.  So I guess they downloaded the XXL jpg version of the vector.

Congratulations! You are now the lowest paid worker in the business. It used to be the coffee bean picker in Latin America.
I just paid $5.50 for a cup of cafe latte. I wonder how much the cafe latte cost at Fotolia !  ;)
