It appears that the images have been put back in order before the change last week thus normal business hours for us...

looks like, I have lost more than 100th places (now into the second page when I was on the beginning of the 1st) and I would say around 50 sales lost and this way I will lose a few more, cheers SS ;D

Yes, I'm back at position 4 with my cat!

looks like SS website changed too, now we have sizes at the right and description/keywords at the bottom, similar pictures with square crop and some "damaging" the picture, not showing up 100% unless you go over them (using the mouse)

again I would love that SS explained me/us how POPULAR/RELEVANT works...

last note: the pictures need to get back to the center of the page, rolling our eyes into the left doesn't look good IMO

Like Oringer says on his blog... there are over 20 million photo on the site.... every contributor must have his chance.  ;)

So whats the default now, popular or relevant?  whatever it is, its working much better.

Yes, something is definitely wrong, I'm getting proxy errors, 502s, or don't get a reply at all...

Monty-m-gue

Better yet, define NORMAL? ??? Normal for Microstock? Well that's pretty abnormal and variable to start with.

I'm not sure what you mean by Normal, but I guess it's far from being normal, neither sales or images position are normal,  in fact my sales are dropping down really fast!
