Title: eyeem now accepting illustrations
Post by: jasonlee3071 on October 02, 2022, 15:05
A few days ago I logged into my Eyeem account and found out that they now are accepting illustrations. So I have submitted 7 of them for approval.
Has anybody else done the same? If so have they been accepted?

Nope, but I don't send them anything now. That could change if there's some reason why I wanted to send Eyeem anything. I'm not against adding more outlets, if they are of any value.

Who is Eyeem? I don't see them in the poll or anyplace else. Do I want to join?

Eyeem is part of Talenthouse, wich ran into financial trouble earlier this year. They didn't pay their contributors for some months.
The issue is fixed now (at least for me) but I'm still very reluctant to resume uploading.

It's mainly a distributor anyhow, with very few own sales.
Most of their sales come from the partner programs, Getty and Adobe, on which I have personal accounts too. (iStock, not Getty)

So there's little value to upload there for me.
I have a small historical portfolio which earns my monthly coffee money, or in a good month a free lunch.

Kind of a unreliable Wirestock concept.

I guess the only answer is whenever they want to get around to it. It would be nice if they did because I have quite a few that I can submit to them.  :)
