Looks like LO is finally making some changes to their minimum payout. And even a $1 minimum payout for Valentine's Day???

I really like LO but I wish they would pick up the momentum on attracting buyers. I have a third less images on IS and make more there in an average day there than I've made at LO in 6 months.

This is great news and will make a lot of the grumblers happy.  (I was one of them).  Why isn't such a big movement not on their blog though?

Well, Bryan, I gotta say, you gave us more than we asked for on this one.  Thanks.

Valentine's Day Score
     

  After some consideration and dialog with some of our loyal Carnies, we're pleased to announce LuckyOliver's new payout structure.

To kick things off, we're giving everyone a chance to cash in on Valentines Day. Carnies with at least $1 in their account can have a payouts sent to them via Paypal or moneybookers!

Starting in March we'll also be lowering the payout to $25.  Payouts will continue to be processed at the end of every month.

Here is the official press release: LUCKYOLIVER SCORES ON VALENTINE'S DAY WITH $1 PAYOUTS

Thanks for everyone's hard work!

Just as I reached the $100 payout too! Its a brilliant gesture though. Nice one.

Took awhile, but I'm glad I waited it out instead of buying other people's images with the earnings I had made. Sales have picked up for me a little this month too.

That's good news! especially for me with a small portfolio. Thanks

That's good move. Listening to contributors is always appreciated.

I'll resume uploading (not that I think you would miss my photos that much ).

That might make it worth for me to upload again. Thank you!

This is good.  I can have my second payout now and aim to get a payout every month.  I am pleased for everyone who stuck with LO and can now get their money.

disregard...

I've already had a payout from LO so had nothing to complain about, but it's very heartening when you see a site listening to users' comments and making changes. I think that lots of contributors like LuckyOliver, and are a bit perplexed that sales have not been what they were expecting. I've done quite well there, but genuinely hope that the site will "take off" in 2008.

Great move Bryan, and every success to you!

That's really neat!  I'm looking forward to it, but I understand I can cash everything I have right now - or more accuratelly by the end of the month? 

When is the end of the month for them?  Around feb 20th or only 29th? 

Regards,
Adelaide
