Hi all,

Im new to this and have uploaded to a few sites.

However what I have found is that I am constantly checking to see if my files have been approved/downloaded/viewed etc.

I have read various other forums and have come to the conclusion that I am hooked along with alot of others.

To help me feed my addiction I searched around looking for some sort of program to watch all the sites that I submit to and found this http://www.microstockwatcher.com/

This seems like a fantastic idea and I was was wondering has anyone else found things similar that we could try before this is completed?  I am so impatient and would like to see one which works now.

I have the Istock widget which is good but multiple site would be great.

Thanks Tristin

tristinh - My company created MicroStock Watcher.  Thanks for your interest and your compliments.  The Mac OSX 10.4 version is ready now and the Windows Yahoo! Konfabulator version should be done soon.  I'm hoping to release it next week.  If you use a PC, please be patient for a few more days.  If you use a Mac, I would invite you to give it a try.

Best regards,

Melissa - We will have the Windows/PC/Yahoo!/Konfabulator version ready very soon.  We know Window people want it, too.

Please hang in there and check back next week!

BTW - You have a great website!  Super images and smooth layout.

Thanks,

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply!  Next week...wow that would be so cool!  Can you please post back here when it is ready!

I am glad you like my website...thanks

Melissa

well this site has something similar also in the works. Homefully soon at at the top where you see the word Dreamstime, you will see the headings of the major stock sites, as well as your downloads, and earnings.

I was wondering what the word Dreamstime was doing there...

ooooh!  when will this be?

maybe next week if it ends up not being too complicated... I have it mostly ready, just have to implement it, but it is never as easy as I hope it to be

marcviln,

any updates on the windows widget.

Thanks

Hello,

Do you plan to add 123RF and Featurepics ?

Thank you.

just thought I would bring this back to the top, any new on the windows version.

I see the Mac version has been running a week or so now but no news on the windoes version.

Any mac users that have tried this your feed back would be good.

Thanks

That would be fantastic!  I hope that you can implement it soon.  Thank you Leaf for creating and improving this site.  I realized that checking on every stock forums was quite time-consuming, and to know that there is this central place where I can quickly get up-to-date with the major site events is really great.

Thanks for your patience.  The Window (Yahoo! Widget) version is now available on our site (www.microstockwatcher.com).  We were working out some cookie and firewall issues but we believe the application is stable now.  Best regards, Marcviln

Oh my this is great!  I have this program on my computer now...and it saves me to much time...I don't have to go to each site and see what my current earning are I just click the refresh button and I get stats on 6 of the sites.

It is a big time saver for me!  I LOVE it!

I would tell anyone who asks me to get this program.

What would be great is to have this info installed on top of this page, where the DT sales already are.  Would it be feasible?

Stupid question... where it says Dreamstime ID on the top, how do you enter your information to get it to go & fetch those numbers? 

I downloaded and installed the program.  It is nice, and well worth the limited amount of money it costs.  However, the program could be seriously improved by tracking two additional items:

1. Grand Totals on all columns.
2. Daily Downloads

Personally, I use the IStock widget to be notified when a sale takes place.  I also run all my agencies in separate tabs in FireFox so that I can watch daily sales.  The currently collected information is nice. But even more important are DAILY downloads and notification of those downloads.  I want to know when I make a sale, so that I can go look at which image sold.  It makes microstock fun.  Since I am only up to about 225 images, it will be a while before I make any serious money, although the $200.00 per month I am making now is nice.  So, to make myself feel better about the time I am spending taking, processing, uploading, and keywording all these image, I need some recreational sales viewing.  Give me DAILY SALES!!!!  I'd pay more than the $15.00 USD for the items above. 

Warm Regards,

Suwanneeredhead, just put your DT id in your profile, and then the total sales show up (not the money).

Love the Microstock Watcher!  Is anybody else having trouble logging into iStock?  It just sits there and goes round and round trying to log in.  I have double-checked the username & password... wondering if it has anything to do with their recent upheavals.

I have a friend who is an internet security analyst and i had asked him to make me a yahoo widget just like this!  I guess we were a little too late, guess he didn't need the money! 

Thanks Madeleine... i had gone into my profile but couldn't find it so I just dug deeper to find the dreamstime ID field.  Those are daily downloads, right?  Because mine says 0 right now (its early).

it is total downloads, but it is only updated once a day, (to relieve stress on the dreamstime site)

Leaf - maybe on the next version there can be an update button?

yep

We are talking about a prgram...not anything to do with this forum here.

you can get the program at www.microstockwatcher.com

here is screen shot from there website....NOT MY STATS!!!


Great program to have!
