today I noticed that my ranking has changed from silver to gold. Normally I needed 10,000 dl,s (4 subs = 1 dl).
But now they are counting every sub as one dl. Since when has this changed?

Has your royalty rate increased on today's downloads..?

yep, but today only subs. From €0,29 to €0,31

Looks like they did a favour to all contributers to bump them up, and make the ne t level up easily attainable

Very nice gesture Adobe, thank you

^^edit : double post

Hasn't worked for me - 1140 downloads, 'only 140 sales to reach the next rank' (silver). Less sales to reach silver than before but silver was 1,000 sales. Now it's 1280 sales?

@Steveball, to my knowledge the rank requirements have not changed. Silver is still 1,000 sales according to the chart here: https://us.fotolia.com/Info/Contributors/Conditions

Send me an email with your account login name and I'll check into this for you.

Mine hasn´t changed either. It says I need -279 sales for silver. I now have 1279 sales.

I´ll see what it says tomorrow, maybe it will be set over night.

I'm seeing a pattern there. I have shared this with the tech team to review.

a 6 credit sale: from €1,50 to €1,86....not bad

working perfectly for me 

One single solitary sub for .30 credits. Oh well. Things can only get better...can't they???

Question for Mat.

Great to see my rank jump to Emerald but sales today are still showing the old amount of credit ie:
Standard S = 3 credit instead of 6
XXL = 12 instead of 24

Hoping this is just a glitch

I think FT does not raise the price automatically, you have to do that (and I do think they will do it for your entire portfolio if you shoot them a message - they did for me for X licenses when I could raise prices there).

thank you Dirkr i'll give it a try.

To keep the positive vibe going....just sold an extended license this morning.

Finally something positive is happening in microstock ! Nice move from adobe. Wish the other will do the same instead of cutting us down like IS... lol

It worked, I am now silver

And I might actually reach gold in my lifetime. Thank you!

Great, just shot you an email Mat, thanks.

How come my rank shows a negative number? -147 till the next level? Am I missing something or is this a hyphen not a minus sign?

I had the same problem but it eventually corrected - just wait a day or two.

There is a visual bug that is impacting accounts that have not had sales since the launch. As soon as you sell your next license the issue will automatically correct itself.

Thank you for your patience,

Mat
