I got a private facebook message from someone representing PIXTA inviting me to sign up. It seems to be a japanese microstock agency. Anyone ever heard of them before?

My personal opinion would be don't bother with them.

I'm an illustrator, they invited me last year, offering a “one-time-special” 40% commission and I joined them. Started fine (not great, just another steady low earner), but recently they changed everything they promised. Cheap subs, commissions cut to half, forgetting-about-contributors, all the usual stuff.
Like cthoman said, I wouldn't bother much with them.

That was pretty much my experience too. I let them keep the couple bucks I had in my account and closed it. It just didn't seem worth it for all the drama that happened in the few months I was on there.

Same experience here. Started out reasonable, and the earnings were OK. Not anymore.
