I just can't talk about this without pointing out that you did a lot to bring this on yourselves. and right now, you just sit around an take it... or rather have go at me than the people who actually took a nice big sh*t in your lap. Yeah that's reasonable. All you should have done is deactivte your files, non destructive, undoable.

Im getting quite tired of seeing these clueless statements from people who obviously do not take in hundreds or thousands of dollars a week from microstock. Everyone knows what is going on at istock is wrong. All this talk of taking the moral high ground and deactivating or deleting your images on istock must not have that much income to lose because in the end, money talks. For many successful exclusives, there seems to be no viable alternative.

Maybe its getting real crowded on itsock. maybe a ton of independants leave istock. maybe exclusives make more money with less competition. too many maybes

Okay, just sit there take it. Fine with me.

I will sit here and take it... since i will be one of the very few that will go up a level. Doesnt mean that i like or agree with the changes

Let's hope I'm not right, but I think the commission cut was the smaller part. The real spanking will come from the search results

the search results (best match) is a zero sum game. meaning for every loser there is a winner.

In terms of dls maybe (unless buyer goes elsewhere). Not in terms of $ though. istock gets more from some sales than others (ignoring size).

First best match results aren't necessarily zero sum, if the search is so bad buyers leave.  Second, the best match has been and will continue to be tweaked for who IS wants to reward which will be Vetta and Agency producers for now, many long time contributors will lose.

I obviusly ment the current situation with 'outsiders' dumped into it, otherwise it makes no sense.

Altho imho so called damins / 'inspectors' seem to be hijacking the system since god knows when, but I guess that's just accepted as regular busines at a place like that.

I wouldn't mind a pint of whatever you're drinking. 'Obviusly' truly liberating.
