So... lol.

I have a 'decent' portfolio size... While I won't specify the 'exact' amount, Adobe said "Nomiate your collection" for a "potential OVER 1/2 MILLION DOLLARS"... (>$500k USD)

While I wasn't necessarily expect half a MILLION (would be nice though -  I suppose I would let them license my collection for that amount)... I was expecting "maybe" on the "estimated" #'s size a few thousands dollars... especially as for the last 8 months for whatever algorithm shift they did sadly my sales dropped by 50-70%)... NAH! 

Lol. Got around $100. From a "potential" OVER $500,000!!!

Heh. Hmm.

Well. Would be nice to see a boost in my general sales. Not sure what they did, but yeah, it's sad - sales dropped by 50-70% about 8 months ago...

Anyhoo!

yeah i really think they should rethink the marketing strategy of dangling giant sums when they know they will likely choose 5%.  i had hundreds of eligible files including almost all of my unsold ones.  they picked like 8.  on the positive side they did choose 5 files that never sold so that's a tiny win.

For me - lol - its not even "5%".  "5%" would have been possibly $20k+ for me. Mine was like 0.0001%...

They should rethink their strategy... I've got like 0,5% from what I've selected. Why?

They need free content, I understand but is this the way to get it???

yeah it wasn't 5% for me either.  i think it was around 5% for photos but yeah maybe 1% from video and what i'm hearing it's even less for others.

Yeah, I think they've squeezed out every little last bit of juice from my portfolio. AI payments were fun for a while until they weren't!

Wow! That's insane! Like one be looking at lamborghini brochures :s Anyhow my sales have plummeted this last couple of months and they reject just about everything new I submit. Always the quality issues which they never specify what those are.
