I see one for 30-Jun

Mantis · « **Reply #1 on:** July 10, 2014, 13:07 »

Nothing for me yet.

PixelBytes · « **Reply #2 on:** July 10, 2014, 13:11 »

None here. This is earlier than normal. Would be nice to see them come in early this month tho.

Nothing else other than the 30-Jun. It appears on the 'Stats' page barchart as PP, but I am not able to find the corresponding sale on the 'Partner Program' page for a specific image. Also, in the 'Financials' page the total is updated for 'Account Balance' but not 'Total Earnings'. I am not sure exactly what is happening. Let me give it a few days

In the PP thread for Jun-2014 over at iS, it is being said that these are PP sales for Editorial images. I discovered for the 1st time today that the 'Partner Program' page does NOT list the editorial images ! So, I had to switch to 'Details' and clicked on the 'Editorial image' icon to bring the editorial images to the top of the page. Since I use script by 'theasis' on 'my uploads' (for Google Chrome), I clicked on the down arrow next to the column 'Royalties' and could find the $0.28 PP sale. Of course it is the total sales, and there is no way to know which of the editorial images have sold on which date under PP.

If anyone knows the trick/tip to find out the PP sale details of editorial images (using the 'theasis' script or any other way), please let us know. It will be very helpful.

Got my first PP on the 1st.

Goofy · « **Reply #8 on:** July 11, 2014, 18:01 »

same here- nice to see it starting on time and from the 1st of the month instead of going backwards like last month- now this is weird- they are doing things right for a change

I got hardly any income from PP this month.

As mentioned above, these are only editorial PP sales, though I don't know why they are reported separately.

pixsol · « **Reply #12 on:** July 11, 2014, 23:10 »

I am beginning to see standard PP sales (from TS) starting at the beginning of Jun-2014.

robhainer · « **Reply #13 on:** July 12, 2014, 00:24 »

I got some of the beginning of June. I'm new to Istock. Do they do the whole month at once, or do they start trickling in over time?

I'm having the hardest time figure out what's selling where, when and how much. Is there a good place to do that like on Shutterstock and most other sites?

Not sure, I have no editorial in iStock but I have already got pp sale for June.

heywoody · « **Reply #15 on:** July 12, 2014, 04:32 »

no editorial here either so seems the "ordinary" pp has started

ShadySue · « **Reply #16 on:** July 12, 2014, 05:39 »

That's interesting. I read two different admins on two different places say it was PP editorial, but I had no idea how or why they would report them separately, unless some editorial outlet has a 'deal' like Alamy's UK Newspaper deal (pure speculation on my part)

Rob - They do the whole month (the previous month actually) in one go, but it usually takes about 3 to 4 days.

You may look into this thread for a script that provides you with the PP details. http://www.istockphoto.com/forum_messages.php?threadid=352385&page=1

The basic IS PP functionality will only give you the total PP sales that has occurred for an image so far. The script will give you the individual sale (how much and when) details. You will have to work backward based on the $-amount to see what kind of image pack sale it would have been

You need to use this royalty schedule - http://www.istockphoto.com/help/sell-stock/rate-schedule

Results are looking really wacky so far, but I'm withholding comment until all the sales are in.

Thanks. That script really helps.

Goofy · « **Reply #20 on:** July 12, 2014, 13:13 »

also the Getty 360 will be included later on after the PP- at least that happen to me last month.

My PP sales look normal until the 11th and then drop to just a sliver and that is the way for the rest of the days after the 11th. Others seeing the same?

Nikovsk · « **Reply #23 on:** July 13, 2014, 05:16 »

Yes PixelBytes, it's not exactly in order day by day.
Let's say it's more or less in order with a fair bit of randomness applied.

ultimagina · « **Reply #24 on:** July 13, 2014, 06:12 »

I see a $26.01 sale from Thinkstock. What type of license is this?
