False alarm.
It's too late here - I read the charts wrong... :-[
-
I've got 2 downloads for the 1st, its has started
-
I have one download Feb 1st. Must be running slow or I have days without downloads.

I think the process has stuck and of course they'll be nobody available at IS over the weekend to take any action.

I guess they have 2 weekends to go kick the machine and try again.

we *hope* it's stuck, else it's going to be dire. how many more points will they fall, FT is not that far behind now.

It's *definitely* stuck. I only have sales showing from the first of the month, and very few at that. I've had PP sales for every day since I joined the PP over a year ago, so I am certain this is not all there is.

^ good to know :)

I'd say since they started this and I dropped StockXpert, I've had PP sales on Thinkstock. That's Piss Poor! ;D
-
Must have been stuck. Mine just started arriving.
-
Poo poo for PP? ;D

my $ has changed but nothing else. hopefully it'll get moving properly today.

Coughed up one sale on February 1st and then croaked. Really, you'd think IS would have got the hang of it by now. >:(
-
I have 3 sales for the first day of febr. They came in different days, so I think they will start adding this we.
-
They've started again. Sales for 2nd Feb coming through now for me.
-
I am really confused. Why does it take so long? Is it hand coded?

Wow, I just went to check and I got their new front page (remember the one that was talked about and demo'd about 3-4 months back??!)
It's nice, but too narrow in my opinion. Heaps of room at the right on most monitors I'd reckon.
And yep, 1 more PP sale found its way into the 1st of the month. At this rate it'll be paid by 2015.

I can't recall a month when the damned thing went smoothly. They need a new machine or a bigger wrench to hit it with. Useless.

Most of my Feb sales are filled in by now, except for the last week. But what's weird is that from the 9th to the 11th I don't have ANY PP sales showing.
As I mentioned above, since I joined the PP I have had sales every day there, including weekends.
Is anyone else missing 2/9 - 2/11? Wondering if this is a glitch or just a weird anomaly in my sales...?

Same here Lisa. I'm also missing any sales from the 28th too.
-
Ditto - the iStock site is so slow, you got in before me!!

Yes, I have the same lack of sales on those days. Also on the 17th, which may be true.
-
I thought that the earnings were on the low side but just realized that I am missing 8-9-10-11-23-28
-
More or less the same missing days, 8-12 and the last 5 days are missing.
-
Same here ... nothing for 8-12
-
mine is full of holes, and yes 7-11 is empty (9/10 is the weekend), as are 16-18 (16/17 being the weekend). But then I don't always get daily PPs on iStock.
*got a few through this arvo for the end of the month*
-
May be Thinkstock was down for three days ;D , I have the same hole in the month.
Also, PP results are much lower than January, but I remember that the January PP sales came in 2 batches, so may be there's more coming.
-
I have a small port but having a very good Feb for PP sales which is good cos IS sales have tanked!
-
Thanks for the replies. :)
Seems like we are all missing those days (9-11, or 8-12). That does suggest it is a glitch.

I think there's still another 'wave' of sales to come. I tend to average 50-60 sales per day on weekdays and there are still some days (like the 8th for example) that are well down on that.
Another thing I've noted about the PP is that although about 80% of my port has apparently been transferred there are huge swathes of my niche subjects that barely appear in the TS search at all. I'm guessing it might be an issue with the transfer of keywords or something. I can't say I'm particularly bothered about it but I thought it worth mentioning. I just thought it was curious that when I clicked on the earnings (on IS) of many of my best-selling images, on all agencies that they appear, that no sales whatsoever had been registered with the PP. It's because they simply don't appear in the search.
