Title: The Crapper List ---New folks pay attention
Post by: Big Money on August 22, 2024, 16:46: Here are my personal Crappers (Let's exclude AS, SS, iStock and Stocksy since they can make money):

1. Zoonar
2. 123RF
3. Envato
4. Crestock
5. Pantermedia
6. MostPhotos
7. EyeEM
8. Creative Market

I no longer do business with these companies. I flushed these turds down the toilet a while back.

These companies sell content well and normally. Envato is my number one source of income.

I don't see why that would make a difference. Bigstock is firmly in the list despite or because of being owned (and possibly ruined) by SS.

Can confirm the list. Except for Envato which I don't have experience with, none of the other ones are really worth it. I would expect Zoonar (which is more of a distribution agency) to bring in some sales as they distribute to DDP, Imagebroker and Imago, but sales are really low there for me.

EyeEm was fair enough for me at some point, but completely dried up since bankruptcy and takeover by Freepik.
