It's November 10th and I'm pleased, if somewhat surprised, to see the PP sales for October start to get added to my balance this morning. How nice to see something happening there in a timely manner :)

Well you made me check and they are indeed rolling in. But by checking I just noticed a whopping $2.88 EL sales. What . is up with that?

Had a EL for $3.90 yesterday :'(

Maybe they are feeling guilty about how late they were last month.
Oh no can't be that I forgot they haven't got a conscience!!!!

Do you really think that they know what term "feeling guilty" means?!
You will see this month they will be late with stats from StockExpert :o

First time online today and checking before I came here. There's one for IS and Gomer Pyle. "Surprise, surprise, surprise!"

I came upon this blog entry today where Getty is talking up Thinkstock subscriptions (http://www.gettyimagesaffiliates.com/why-buy-an-image-subscription). At the end they say they're offering 67% off monthly subscription prices through the end of 2012.
Although what they pay contributors is too low, it's unconnected to the price they charge buyers, so in this case, if the promo brings in lots of new buyers, there's the potential for us to see a boost in PP sales for December. The only possible wrinkle would be if the business transferred from SS subscriptions, but I'm guessing it's more likely it'd be from other Getty sources.
Not sure if the discount means they aren't getting the customers they want for Thinkstock or they are seeing growth and are hoping to boost it further by making it cheap to try for a month.
