Title: New Look Mostphotos!
Post by: CD123 on February 03, 2013, 12:09
What a great improvement to the site's look! Congratulation to the owners. Now we just have to figure out how to view other peoples new images as well  ;)

Uploading seems to be a lot nicer too,  are the forums completely gone?  I can seem to find that either.  I also can't figure out how to view other images.

My problem as well. They are still using the likes to establish your most liked images, so it must be still active somewhere. I think the link to that page is just missing. Rather big slip. I have already contacted them about it.

Wow!

Since their forum is not available right now, I have to unleash my feelings here on MSG: Wow!

This seems to be the "bomb" they were recently mentioning in their forum. The new design looks fantastic.

Now, this is the very first time ever (started on iStock in 2006) that I try to place a referral link to my portfolio:

mostphotos.com/hanhepi (https://www.mostphotos.com/hanhepi)

The new photographer's profile page looks just sooo good.

Still many questions left, hope their forum will be back soon.

Well, maybe I am only this emotional/enthusiatic right now because of this heartbreaking iStock/Google experience and yesterday's D-Day. *sigh*

here is something to be less excited about when it comes to Mostphotos:

"You can use the images as often as you want, however you want."

"When you have a monthly package on Mostphotos, you can download as many images as you want."

This is from the "plans and pricing" page...

That is awfully scarey!  But still they do not get sales. Just go to prove my theory that pricing is but a small component that drives buyers. Their new look site might improve sales, but with that type of monthly package, we can rather give our images to iStock for free redistribution.

Has anybody found out where to see your detailed sales report? Under Transactions, I can see all time total earnings and my current balance - but no sales report. There also doesn't seem to be a way to add new images to a particular album. Just tried uploading and editing one image but no album option there. Regards, David.

maybe you haven't had any sales this month (by default it shows February 2013), you need to check January 2013

Has anyone tried editing their image data. I have tried changing a title and it seems to revert back to the unchanged version after I save and come back to the image.

Sound / Looks like a very premature release. It is fine to ask contributors to help sorting out small snags, but it seems like they have not pre-tested this upgrade at all. That is just bad business!
Title: Re: New Look Mostphotos!
Post by: Microbius on February 04, 2013, 06:04
Just went back to the images and now it seems the change has been made, weird, maybe it takes time for the changes to take effect?

Thanks Luis! I needed to go back rather further than January  ;) but I see what you mean. Not as good as before though because you used to get a complete list of all your previous sales in one place. Regards, David.

If you go to 'Notifications' (or 'My Notifications') there is a link to 'Sales'. It shows a longer list, including thumbnails, but in my case it shows only 13 of the recent sales.

Then, there are links to "View your sale report" for each image, but these don't seem to work right now.

^^ Many thanks Heyoka! That was what I was looking for. Regards, David.

I'm selling at mostphotos: (www.mostphotos.com/photopat (http://www.mostphotos.com/photopat)) and I like the site but I don't understand that you can't find a total of sales per month. I see all the photos I sold but I have to count them one by one to get my total. Is there a way around this?

Hey guys!

Once you have clicked on "transactions" you can choose to download your income as a CSV-file.
This gives you an overview of all your sales and if you wish you can sort and calculate that by month.

Let me know if you ever have any questions!

Many questions can also be answered via our Help Center at the bottom of the page.

A monthly total will be implemented under "transactions"!

A monthly total, split between sales and referrals, is now implemented to the right in "transactions", just below "earnings"!
