Weird...I can get in on my iPad, but not my laptop. My earnings summary is not keeping up with the actual downloads. My sales are up big time. I took screenshots to make sure it's not a dream. New search algorithm?

It may be best not to get too excited about things that the site is showing while it is going wrong.

Down since the last 12 hours.
:-(

0700 PST in Seattle WA site is completely down...

the buyer side appears to be operational thus we are getting sales - just cannot see the stats...

I got in for a few seconds and saw that I have many more sales than usual, then it was down again. What's up with that?

Thus the chain image, they don't want us to know just how mangled and defective the site has become.

Should have invested in keeping the site in good working order over the years instead of a posh New York Business address.

   Yeah, maybe they should get out of New York and go someplace less expensive. Calgary, perhaps?
As for the mangled and defective website, if that's the reason my sales are 50% higher this month than any month before, then I say, mangle it some more.

Let's just hope that the contributors side is recording them! Would be nice to know what's gone wrong and when it's likely to be back up.

Your increased sales may have come at the expense of other contributors. I guess you missed the threads on SS that detailed the SS buyer side showing searches with blank or invisible images for some contributors in various parts of the world. I guarantee they are not so happy about their own lack of sales in those regions. Buyers can not buy what they can not see.

So it is still down

Today so far is one of my best days in a while. Site is up you just can't go to http://submit.shutterstock.com instead go to https://submit.shutterstock.com . Go ahead and log in and you will get the chain again as it brings you back to the standard http version of the site. change it once again to https:// and you are good to go and can check your stats.

^works for me too. Unfortunately, no big boost in sales that others are seeing

BigStock is working now too.

Which just goes to show that the chain image is to keep contributors out until they have things sorted out.

I am seeing the opposite. The weekend is drastically down over normal and not one sale for 36 hours.

This works great and gets you wherever you want to go!

Stills doesn't work here. Let's me log in via https but then show the chain again.

Yeah, my sales are horrendous if that is giving up-to-date info - nothing sold in the last nine or ten hours.

same here! Only 3 sales for .36  heck even Fotolia has 6 sales for about $5

Yup you will get the chain one more time after you log in. Once you do that change it over to https:// again and you will get in. You have to change the site to https to first get to the login page and then change it again to https after logging in and getting the chain.




If you are wanting to upload files guys I'm not sure where it will go or how well it will work but at least you can see your sales.

Also a couple quirks. Doesn't seem to be updating the statistics page for me. I have to go in to the actual date to see the images that sold and there are a lot more images showing then the just general over all day by day stats. that and the total earnings hasn't updated yet either.

Thanks for the tip. I could get in and got the usual sales for a monday.

Ah, yes, that's better. Quite a reasonable day for sales according to that page.

Me too - last sale was early on Nov 15.  Nothing since.

Riffmax have you clicked the actual date yet?
