I'm hoping it will eventually catch up with SS and P5  in a few years.

No, sir.  I just have a good expectation for them and am happy the sales are growing rapidly (at least for June).

Hmm...after 6 sales in May I got a big fat zero sales in June. I recall reading where they were going to give all their current subscribers a free marketplace download. I kinda figured that was where my May sales came from and if so, that would explain why June sales dried up for me.

I'm sorry, but I don't think they ever gave free marketplace download.  All the free downloads are from their own collection of clips.  If they give our works for free, everybody will leave ASAP and will sue them too.

I'm not saying they gave our work away for free without paying us. If I remember correctly, they gave every subscriber a free download but they paid us full price for the download.

So, what's the problem then?

Well I think hes saying that's why for May he had lots of sales but none for June? As the free downloads needed to be used by the end of May. So for many people they may have thought WOW Videoblocks is great - but in reality they were free downloads and since they've been taken away all the sales are gone. That's how I read it anyway.

This is exactly what I was trying (but apparently failing) to say  ;)  I'm not saying this is a fact but it's what I'm thinking based on my own experience.

THIS month? This month is 2 days old. Do you normally get a sale every few days on VB? You are definitely doing far, far better than me (which can't be too hard).  :)

Got a sale in May and none in June but just got another sale Today.    I'm continuing to upload slowly but surely.  It makes sense to support people that are good to artists IMO.

On another note the way they have the site working is in my view one of the best stock sites ever for submitting content.  Right to the point and little hassle.  Whomever designed it knew well what he/she was doing in respects to uploading procedures.
