Shutterstock portfolio interface change
marthamarks:
What's bizarre is that (in my case at least) "top content" doesn't actually include any of my best sellers. It's just some, but not all, of the most recent images sold followed by a big bunch of new images that haven't sold yet but used to show up as "fresh". Other recent sales are interspersed among the new stuff.
Doesn't showcase my historically "top" material at all.
I don't get the point.

Well, at least it's working and looking good and it was done smoothly overnight. The layout of the page looks clean and professional, unlike AS massive banner and 2 featured collections taking up all the space doubled with a potpourri of photos and videos all mixed up.
Also, customers have access to our personal website which can be nice for bespoke work.

I agree on most of that.
However, one thing that I *do* really like about the AS portfolio page is that you can preview a video (in tiny format, of course) simply by hovering your cursor over it. No need to click and wait to get a general idea of what it's about and see it in motion.
One thing I do *not* like about the AS portfolio page is that the title/description is not visible on the images and videos there, so you do have to click and wait to know exactly what the subject is.
I also notice that on AS, if you hover your cursor over the two "collections" photos, you can now see the title of the collection. It wasn't that way when they introduced those collections. We asked for some identification, and they provided that. The collection name is not readily visible, of course. One literally has to stumble upon it to know it's there, but at least it *is* there now.
Plus… it's nice to be able to change the banner image at the top so easily.
OTOH, the photos attached to the two collections seem to be fixed as the very first ones I assigned to each collection. I'd like to be able to change them, too, but don't know how to do that.
Happily, I find that the assorted images and videos below the two collection boxes actually do a good job of reflecting both my current best sellers and my newest content.
Not Today:
Fair enough. I'd rather not have my best sellers listed on page 1 tho as it makes it easier for copycats and thieves, maybe the most viewed would be a better option as it doesn't necessarily mean they're being downloaded.

Yeah but there's an option to look at our sets, so even better. Fresh does nothing for me and neither did Popular. Images, Collections, About and a nice look, plus search this contributor. (sorted by the ever mysterious Most Popular) :)
I like it.
I think I'll put a note in my profile, free hamburger for the first person to read this and send a message. I wonder how long that will take, before anyone actually cares about my "About" which is a joke.
