I think what happened there is massive dilution. Early on, they got a lot of buzz for being a site that was easy to work with and paid fair commissions - and was making a few sales. GL sort of went viral among stock photographers and they probably received a huge volume of images. Then their sales sharply declined (supposedly due in part to changes at Google) and never recovered. The result is that today they may be making enough to stay in business, but not to be worthwhile for individual photographers - so no one is submitting there any longer.

Their maximum of 20 images a day to submit is very boring, I have stopped to submit there because of this.
If they would put a maximum for the month (600, corresponding to their maximum a day X 30) I surely start to upload again.

Uploading has been closed there for months hasn't it??? Are you able to upload 20 a day?
Beppe Grillo:
^
There are months that I have stopped to upload to them, so I don't know if their upload is working. I don't even know if the site is still active (visible, accessible yes, but active??)
fotografer:
Definitely active. I had sales if February but so far only one this month. It says no uploading for me that was why I was surprised to read about 20 a day.
