Very nice list. Just one quick comment, Alamy is now 20% until people reach $250 in the past years sales total. Not commission, but net sales. You might want to change that to 17% to 40%? Because Distributor sales are even worse.

Well, Depositphotos states "Due to potential legal issues, we are not accepting this type of content.". So I don't know how accurate that list is...

Also, dreamstime have some limitations, they don't accept people faces:
"Contributors will not upload images of generated people's faces as it is impossible to provide a model release for them"

yep, distributor would be 12% at lowest, 40% for Distributor +80%*(1-40%)= 88% taken away from Photographer.

Basicaly Alamy is saying 95% of contributors will take 20% from now on, such crappy people, is a low erner majority wont rick that 250 usd, and further on when they drop to 20% will be even garder, so basicaly almost everybody will take home 20% that is worst than iStock.

We're going off the subject but I don't see how 15% from IS, is better than 20% from AL? Not dollars, but pure percentages. Every year except 2023 I made enough in Net sales on AL to be at the 40% level, and I'm not one of the big time Stock people with many diverse and interesting photos.
My only correction was, Alamy was listed at 40% and the truth is, 17% for Distribution sales, 20% for anyone else, and the 40% is for people who have enough licenses to make it to the higher level. The list has been updated since then.
