I opted in to the PP programme about 1-2 months ago. I know its all very slow, but how will I be able to see if and what images are available on the PP sites and how well they are doing

Thank you

It's funny but I checked my numbers and I think I have about only 50% of my port there.  Can't imagine how much money I could make if all my images had to be there.  Right now I get $140-$220 a month (yes that big a swing).  What's interesting is that I, way deep down inside, feel that the payout variance is miscalculation, not actual sales variance.  Once month I make $140 and the next $175.  That's a 105 download variance.  I suppose it's possible but just seems like the manual process they use is so prone to errors and shenanigans.  >:( :-\

I have noticed that in my own files too, I see pictures from other "Santos" contributor

because those images have kamo as a keyword.

If I change my business name from "kamo" to something else, which I have been meaning to for a while, will thinkstock update the images business name or will I just be causing more problems than its worth?

Images that are there will remain with the name they have on them now. New images will have the new name. Mine do.

For people searching for all of their images, don't forget that IS first used real names, then changed to Company/Organization name. You could be "fname lname" and/or "fnamelname" (no space) and now "Company/Organization Name" so potentially three different account names.

Have fun!
