Author Topic: Who is "Yestone" and why are they using my photo? (Read 2540 times)

I just started in microstock this year, but figured I would wait awhile before trying to find out what had happened with images that had been sold. Today one of my shots came up on what appears to be a Chinese stock photo site called Yestone. Can't seem to find out who they are. I'm assuming they're affiliated with one of the larger agencies I submitted photos to, but can't tell. Any help?

Most likely a partner site for one of the agencies.

If they are partnering with one of your agencies, they should display agency's watermark.

My port is there too. Would like to know who they are partnered with.

Mine are there, and the only site portfolio size total that is similar is Fotolia. There are 2 less images there than are on Fotolia. Maybe just a coincidence??

There is a watermark, but it's not one I recognize. No words; just the outline of a camera.

Definitely Fotolia. Yestone has 58 of my photos, the same ones I have left on Fotolia.

Fotolia needs a partner site opt out. The new owners should embrace a higher standard.
