Considering the high number of images submitted to them weekly I kind of suspected that this promotion won't last for very long. That's why I uploaded my images as quickly as possible. Uploaded 500+ images with only two rejections. Collected my $100 and now I will wait and see if it will be worth uploading more.

Anyone been to DP site in the last few minutes? I keep getting the "Oops! This link is broken" message. Also, I had two banners up, one on my Zazzle site and one on my blog. Both had been working fine. Now all that is there is the red "x". When you click on it, you get the same oops message. Sooooooo, are they still around or just down?

Site must be having some major problems. I was able to log on but when you click on the category links on the left there are zero images in any of them. Click on any of the Top 10 Photographers at the bottom, and they have no images. No images anywhere. However, when I click on my "Files" tab, it shows my images and does show my balance. So not sure what's going on.


Edited: Okay, must have been some technical thing going on with them. Some of the images are starting to come back now. Never mind ...

no offence guys, but where are you going ?

if you're crap feel free to deal with these guys like 123RF and other agencies i've never heard before.

but for anything else, if you're serious about stock make yourself a good edited portfolio and apply with Getty.

if getty dislikes you there's still Alamy, AGE, Masterfile, and at least the option of being istock exclusive.

why wasting yout time and dealing with such fly by night operations like 123Rf and the gang of low earners ?

Wow guys!
I thought I was missing out on a opportunity but maybe it was wise to avoid this one?

I got my 111$ last week 4hrs after asking payout. I gave them 1K images in one big chunk last January. Then I stopped uploading and I will forget them for 6 months. If at the end of this period they aren't spitting decent $, I will just hang on but not resume uploading. They have a fair chance since I could have stopped at 500, but I won't hold my breath for sales. Yes you missed a window of opportunity to cash in 110$ (10$ for a 3-month site banner) for a couple of hours of work categorizing and MRF-ing.

I did not receive the email. 411 images online, 8 rejections and 9 pending. I earned $121.40 for February, so for me the it was worth the effort.

It seems the promotion for referral uploads is no more.

Send them a couple of days ago my test/exam files .
Approved a couple of days later.
Send the yesterday 173 files combination vectors and photographs 21 rejected for similarity (and they were right)
399 file in the unfinished area (I will send them later on.
On my account Balance: $29.40 so they  still do the promotion thing.

"I kind of give up on Alamy cause whole process takes to long. In order to have 5000 images there it will take years (I do not even have 5K on SS). I do not have enough experience to figure where each image would be accepted so all agencies get the same stuff. This probably reason why I am failing on Alamy cause they want something else."

Hi Melastmohican!

Alamy only judge on quaility of pics, not subject matter. Don't try and second guess what will sell or not, as the most odd things do. If you have the right file size, upload them.

My portfolio is very diverse, I make $100 - $250 per month, although this month I sold one for $1050. Think of it as buying lots of lottery tickets - the more you have up there the better.

I received money for a referral upload today, so that part is also still active.
