Thanks Jamie, you did a good job and you're part of the good old times.

They are definitely part of the golden age of microstock for illustrators.
I wish Jamie all the best for the future.

I wish good luck to Jamie.
But this was expected. They had a very strict contributor approval policy and later completely stopped taking contributors.

AI killed it?

We need to accept this fact that AI killed many businesses and lot of job losses in past few years.
I will not deny that AI killed clipartof too.

AI didn't kill ClipartOf...
"all you can download for $10 sites" did.
Who would pay $30 for a single vector when they can get unlimited vector downloads for 1/3 of the price?

That too. The free and the all you can take sites, are hurting all around.
But, I'm not a fan of AI, the point is, anyone can go to one of the AI sites and type in some words and have an illustrations of what they need. Many places, accounts were free like Dall-E, until last year, and there are still ways to make free illustrations.
It's just sad to see a quality site, going out of business because the market and the industry has sunk so far. Microstock became Pennystock, has become Nanostock.
