I can't find button for classic picture view on iStock anymore, is it shutdown forever now? Aldo there was a message that they will shut it down I thought that wouldn't really do it since message was there for a wile and I heard that there is amount of people who liked old view better, and I'm among them.

Nooooooooooooooooo.  The new interface is unusable.

I still see the "Switch to Classic View" link at the bottom of Portfolio and search pages.
However they do note that it is going away soon.

Just checked again, there is no button, for me at least. There was a note, but I don't get it why they couldn't keep both. New one is stupid as hell.

The most important thing was ofcourse lightboxes, description and download views. Since I'm newbie I find it very helpfull to see how many times each image can sell in a year.

For me the classic view option is still there for search results, but gone from the file close up page.

Yup, gone from file closeup page for me too. Either when logged in or not.

The classic view closeup page also used to show you how many total sales you have made for an image, including sub sales, etc.

When you see the image listed in My Uploads, the total number of downloads shown only refers to standard credit sales.

So this taking away of another site feature also results in an additional loss of useful information for the contributor that had helped contributors gauge which of their images are selling well, especially under the subs program.

Since the majority of sales are now also subscription sales, and not credit sales, it seems this additional loss of information is rather critical and the information that remains only about credit sales is rather superfluous. SMH
