After a very good august and september in sales, seems like this october, sales have tanked

Just like at almost every site that I contribute too. Just a bad month IMO, it's not that they screwed something up

I'm having a BME at 123RF.

My sales at all other sites are down this month.

Sept was my BME at 123, and comparing earnings from Oct 1-24 to Sept 1-24, I'm up about 8% this month and will almost certainly beat it.

I have a excellent 2011 with 123RF, but October is very bad. Patience, a bad month it does not mean anything.
Although better to Fotolia ... what disaster!

its going to be another BME.

Not bad at all. Unfortunately also a very bad month for me after last month's BME.

don´t agree, they are on track for a good month (6 week days left)

don't agree with what? That some contributors are not having a good month? You do not make sense - it differs from contributor to contributor and is sometimes very much just related to the flavor of the month. Even with 6 days to go I am not even on one fifth of last month.

thats not what I said, please read your comment, "Unfortunately also a very bad month"

So far, got my best month in 2 years with 123rf and the worst one in 2 years with Istock

The "also" referring to other contributors "also" having bad months, aka the topic heading. My comment on yours "Not bad at all."

I guess it depends on what you consider good or bad. Some think 50 DL's a month is amazing ...others a 1000 or 2000.
